Product No: GNGPL-57C20
This CEE7 Fig. 20 Gauges C20 Device for Non-solid Pins is precision-engineered in strict compliance with the specifications outlined in IECEE CEE-7 Figure 20, a key standard for domestic and similar-purpose plugs and socket-outlets. It is exclusively designed to test the structural integrity and durability of non-solid pins in plugs, verifying their ability to resist deformation or damage under specified mechanical stress. By simulating real-world forces on non-solid pins, this device ensures that plugs meet CEE 7’s rigorous safety and performance requirements, preventing hazards from pin failure during use or insertion.
Specifications:
• Fully conforms to IECEE CEE-7 standard requirements, aligning with Figure 20 specifications for non-solid pin testing
• Core component: Steel rod (Tige en acier) with a diameter of 4.8 mm
• Integrated weight (Poids) for applying standardized mechanical stress during testing
• Manufactured from high-strength steel and durable materials to maintain dimensional stability and test accuracy
• Engineered to target non-solid pin structures without damaging surrounding plug components
• Calibrated for consistent force application to ensure repeatable test results
• Compatible with CEE 7-compliant plugs featuring non-solid pins for domestic and similar applications
Test Procedures:
• Inspect the test device for damage, wear, or dimensional deviations, confirming the steel rod’s diameter and weight comply with CEE 7 Figure 20 specifications.
• Prepare the test sample (plug with non-solid pins) and ensure it is clean, free from cracks, or pre-existing damage to the pins.
• Secure the plug firmly in a stable fixture, positioning the non-solid pin to be tested in a vertical or specified orientation per CEE 7 guidelines.
• Align the device’s steel rod with the center of the non-solid pin, ensuring the rod makes direct, perpendicular contact with the pin’s surface.
• Apply the integrated weight to the steel rod, exerting the standardized force specified in CEE 7 for non-solid pin testing.
• Maintain the force for the required duration outlined in the standard, observing the pin for any deformation, bending, or structural failure.
• After the test period, remove the weight and steel rod, then inspect the pin closely for signs of permanent damage or reduced functionality.
• Verify if the non-solid pin retains its original shape and structural integrity, meeting the pass criteria defined in IECEE CEE-7.
• Document test results, including observations of pin performance and whether the sample complies with the standard, and reset the device for subsequent tests.
Applications:
• Quality control testing of CEE 7-compliant plugs with non-solid pins in manufacturing facilities to verify structural integrity.
• Compliance assessment by certification bodies and third-party testing laboratories for IECEE CEE-7 certification of electrical products.
• R&D testing for the design optimization of non-solid pin structures, enhancing durability and resistance to mechanical stress.
• Routine inspection of production lines producing domestic and similar plugs with non-solid pins for regions requiring CEE 7 compliance.
• Performance verification of non-solid pin components supplied by third-party vendors to meet CEE 7 specifications.
• Post-production quality audits to confirm the reliability of non-solid pins before market release, preventing pin failure-related hazards.
• Quality assurance for manufacturers exporting plugs with non-solid pins to CEE 7-adopting markets, ensuring compliance with regional safety standards.
