This paper explores the wear and tribology performance of three types of terminals, each coated with a different metallic surface (gold, silver, tin), in an environment of fluctuating temperatures. As integral elements of electronic connectors, these terminals are essential for maintaining stable contact resistance, which is crucial to the safety of the entire electrical system. The study reveals that the friction coefficients of the coated terminals are lower at low temperatures compared to ambient temperature. Furthermore, the cooler conditions help maintain more consistent contact resistance. Specifically, the terminals with gold coating mainly experience adhesive and abrasive wear during initial low plug/pull tests, with adhesive wear becoming more dominant in later stages. In contrast, terminals with silver coating primarily suffer from abrasive wear, while those coated with tin tend to show predominantly adhesive wear during initial plug/pull cycles.
