NATO Supply Class 5950 is a classification within NATO Supply Group 59, which is dedicated to Electrical And Electronic Equipment Components.
Specifically, Class 5950 focuses on Coils And Transformers. Coils are devices that consist of a series of windings or turns of wire, typically wound around a core, and are used to create magnetic fields or to store energy. Transformers, on the other hand, are devices that consist of two or more coils of wire that are linked by a magnetic field. They are used to transfer electrical energy between different circuits with different voltage levels.
In the context of NATO supply classification, Class 5950 includes various types of coils and transformers that are used in electrical and electronic equipment. This can include power transformers, audio transformers, inductors, chokes, and other similar devices.
The purpose of this classification is to provide a standardized system for identifying and categorizing coils and transformers used in military and defense-related applications. This allows for easier procurement, inventory management, and logistics support within NATO member countries.
If you need more specific information about a particular type of coil or transformer within Class 5950, please let me know and I'll be happy to assist you further.
Includes Coils, except ignition and magneto; coil assemblies; reactors; transformers.
