  text: Failure in time (FIT) is an important measure for the reliability of electrical
    connectors. Due to the very long lifetime of connectors, the tests for the determination
    of FIT rate are time and labour intensive. In this paper a data driven method
    using a statistical process to estimate the FIT rate of electrical connectors
    with data of electrical contact resistance development in short term tests is
    proposed. The results of prediction are then compared with the results from long
    term tests. The study shows a strong correlation between contact resistance development
    in short term tests and the development of the number of failures in later stages
    of tests. In order to predict the development of degradation precisely, the distribution
    of resistance data in many different tests with different connectors is investigated.
    The Generalized Extreme Value Distribution, which reveals an ideal fitting, has
    been implemented for the prediction of the failure rates of connectors, thereby
    enabling a remarkable time-lapse of lifetime tests. This method can also be employed
    in the prognosis and management of system health through the forecast of health
    of connectors in different systems in operation.
