20N IEC 60884-1 Stainless Steel Heat Resistance Compression Test Device

IEC 60884-1 Plug Socket Tester Heat Resistance Compression Test Device Stainless Steel

Standard: IEC 60884-1 2013 clause 24.19, 25.4 and figure 38

Standard description: 

The specimens are subjected to a compression test by means of an apparatus as shown in figure 38, the test being made in a heating cabinet at a temperature of (80 ± 2) °C.
The apparatus comprises two steel jaws, having a cylindrical face of 25 mm radius, a width of 15 mm and a length of 50 mm. The length of 50 mm can be increased, depending on the size of the accessory to be tested.
The corners are rounded with a radius of 2,5 mm.                                        Plug Socket Tester
The specimen is clamped between the jaws in such a way that these press against it in the area where it is gripped in normal use, the centre line of the jaws coinciding as nearly as possible with the centre of this area. The force applied through the jaws is 20 N.
After 1 h, the jaws are removed and the specimens shall show no damage within the meaning of this standard.         Plug Socket Tester
