EIA-717-A, "Surface Mount Niobium and Tantalum Capacitor Qualification Specification," June 2010
This specification defines the qualification program for surface mount tantalum and niobium capacitors.

TP-113, ANSI/EIA-364-113, "Corrosivity of Contacts Test Procedure for Electrical Connectors," March 2010
This test procedure establishes a test method to determine whether corrosion products as a result of residual corrosive elements may be created on contact surfaces.

TP-112, ANSI/EIA-364-112 "Contact Resistance and Current Rating of Parallel Circuits Test Procedure for Electrical Connectors Contacts and Sockets," January 2010
This procedure applies to connectors and sockets when multiple circuits are electrically connected in a parallel configuration and there is a need to determine the expected parallel resistance and or current rating.

TP-41E, ANSI/EIA-364-41E "Cable Flexing Test Procedure for Electrical Connectors," January 2010
This standard establishes a method to determine the effectiveness of round jacketed cable to connector strain relief seal, or flat cable to connector strain relief seal or interface to withstand strain under repeated alternating cable-flexing stresses as experienced in use with molded or mechanical backshell cable strain-relief designs commonly used with electrical connectors.
