IEC 60884-1 Figure 8 Plug and socket-Outlet Compression Test apparatus for Checking Mechanical Strength of Plug and Socket-Outlet
1. Introduction
The compression test apparatus is designed to meet the test requirements of IEC60884-1 clause 24.5 for checking the mechanical strength of socket-outlets and plugs. Place the specimen in position a), and 300N force is applied for 1 min. After then, place the specimen in position b), and again subjected to the 300N force for 1min. The specimen is removed from the test apparatus and after 15 min it shall show no damage within the meaning of this standard.
The compression test apparatus also can meet the test requirements of EC60884-1 clauses 10.1 and EN50075 clause 13.1. The specimen of plug or portable socket-outlet is pressed between two flat surface with a force of 150N for 5 min, the specimen is checked 15 min after removal from the force, it shall not show such deformation as it would result in undue alteration of those dimensions shown in the relavant standard sheets which ensure safety.
