Reuven:
The NEMI test method and the classes can be downloaded from the NEMI website
at:
http://www.inemi.org/cms/projects/ese/tin_whisker_activities.html

Select the link "paper" next to the item Tin Whisker Acceptance Test
Requirements (NEMI Tin Whisker User Group, updated July 28, 2004)

Class 2 is the best performance rating you can get from a tin plating.

Cheers,

meets NEMI Class 2 (max. whisker length 40 micrometers).  We are working on
qualifying another plating solution at this time.  Please check with the
customer if Class 2 is acceptable for their application."
