Subject: [TN] Insulation in the crimp contact area


I am trying to find an IPC reference standard for a situatuation I believe
is a problem.  I have some 24AWG wires coming from a cooling fan assembly
where the wires are terminated with crimped male contacts that slip into a
plastic housing for a typical pin-and-socket arrangement.  The outer part of
the crimp looks good where the wire is nicely crimped around the wire
insulation, but the inner part of the crimp appears marginal in that there
is consistently at least some insulation running into the contact area.  The
result is a crimp that does not appear to be fully formed around the actual
conductor.  Closest IPC reference I found was 610C, 4.2.3.2 for mechanical
assembly, hardware mounting, threaded fasteners - where there is to be "no
insulation in the contact area".  Could anyone give me a more specific
standard reference or perhaps educate me if this is an actual problem?
Responses to the list or private e-mail is greatly appreciated.  Thank you
in advance.
