    Description / Table of Contents: Gold Flashing on Relay Contacts. It is not the colour but the resistance of contacts which determines their efficiency. Since, however, it is an expensive and time-wasting procedure to measure the resistance of every contact, many costomers reject relays whose silver contacts show a brownish-black discolouration, complaining that they have been kept too long in stock.This problem was believed to have been solved by the introduction of gold-flashing as a temporary coating while the contacts are kept in stock. Now the German Post Office's Telecommunications Head Quarters (Fernmeldetechnisches Zentralamt der Deutschen Bundespost) in Darmstadt have found indications which raise some suspecions as to the damaging side-effects of gold-flashing. For this reason, a working committee of the VDE (Association of German Electrical Engineers), group 1.6„Contact behaviour and switching processes“, undertook its own investigations. The results were revealed during a platform-discussion on the 3rd October, 1973 in the Technical College at Karlsruhe and are given here in the form of edited speeches and a summary of the discussion.
    Notes: Nicht die Farbe, sondern der Kontaktwiderstand ist ein eindeutiges Maß für die Brauchbarkeit von Kontakten. Da aber die Messung des Kontaktwiderstandes zeitraubend und teuer ist, weisen viele Kunden Relais mit braun-schwarz angelaufenen Silberkontakten als „überlagert“ zurück. Seit der Einführung der Hauchvergoldung als vorübergehender Lagerschutz galt dieses Problem als gelöst. Hinweise des Fernmeldetechnischen Zentralamtes der Deutschen Bundespost in Darmstadt haben Zweifel an der Unschädlichkeit der Hauchvergoldung aufkommen lassen und einen Arbeitskreis der VDE-Fachgruppe 1.6„Kontaktverhalten und Schalten“ zu eigenen Untersuchungen veranlaßt. Die Ergebnisse wurden in einer Podiumsdiskussion am 3. 10. 1973 an der Technischen Hochschule Karlsruhe vorgetragen und werden heir als Kurzfassung der Vorträge und Zusammenfassung der Diskussion wiedergegeben.
