Abstract
An evaluation method is a method for evaluating a charging connector in coolability by connecting an evaluation jig to the charging connector, the charging connector including a pair of male terminals coolable with a coolant, the evaluation jig including a pair of female terminals, the pair of female terminals being connected to the pair of male terminals in evaluating the charging connector in coolability. The method comprises: connecting the pair of female terminals to the pair of male terminals; adjusting a connection state between the male terminal and the female terminal such that contact resistance between the terminals is 0.06 mΩ or more and 0.15 mΩ or less; and after the adjusting, evaluating the coolability depending on whether the male and female terminals have a temperature of 90° C. or lower when a charging current of 400 A is supplied to the terminals for 30 minutes.
