Product No: GNGPL-90605
This Gauge for Outlets 16A 250V A.C. According to IEC 60906-1 Figure 5A/5B is engineered to check the maximum withdrawal force of 16A 250V A.C. plugs and socket-outlets, complying with IEC 60906-1 Figure 5A/5B and Clause 22 of IEC 60884-1. Crafted from hard corrosion-resistant metal (such as stainless steel), it ensures accurate and durable performance in verifying the withdrawal force requirement for household and similar purpose socket-outlets, playing a vital role in product quality control and compliance with international electrical standards.

Test Procedures:
• Ensure the gauge is clean and free of debris or corrosion before initiating the test.
• Confirm that the 16A 250V A.C. socket-outlet to be tested is installed or positioned in a stable, standard orientation as required by relevant standards.
• Insert the gauge into the socket-outlet’s contact assembly in strict accordance with the structural requirements of IEC 60906-1 Figure 5A/5B.
• Apply a steady and gradual pulling force to the gauge to simulate the withdrawal of a plug from the socket-outlet.
• Measure and record the maximum force required to fully withdraw the gauge from the socket-outlet.
• Compare the measured maximum withdrawal force with the limit values specified in Clause 22 of IEC 60884-1 to determine compliance.
Applications:
• Maximum withdrawal force testing of 16A 250V A.C. household socket-outlets.
• Compliance verification for plugs and socket-outlets manufacturers to meet IEC 60906-1 and IEC 60884-1 standards.
• Quality control inspections in the production process of electrical socket-outlets for household and similar purposes.
• Conformance testing for electrical products intended for international markets requiring adherence to IEC standards.
• Performance evaluation and validation in research and development of socket-outlet products.
• Third-party certification and audit testing for electrical equipment compliance.
