  • Abstract
    THE PERFORMANCE of electrical connections at high altitudes has been reasonably well explored in recent years up to approximately 65,000 feet, which has been sufficient for most electrical purposes in connection with aircraft. However, the data are no longer adequate due to the extreme altitude requirements for present flight vehicles.
