CEE7 Figure 20 Gauges C20 Device for Non-solid Pins

This CEE7 Figure 20 Gauges C20 Device for Non-solid Pins is precision-engineered to comply with the technical specifications defined in IECEE CEE-7 Figure 20, the international standard governing domestic and similar-purpose plugs and socket-outlets. The device is specifically designed to evaluate the structural integrity and mechanical durability of non-solid pins in electrical plugs, verifying their resistance to deformation or failure under standardized mechanical stress conditions.

By applying controlled mechanical forces that simulate real-world insertion and usage scenarios, this test device ensures that non-solid pin configurations meet the rigorous safety and performance requirements established by IECEE CEE-7 standards. This validation process prevents potential hazards associated with pin failure during plug insertion, removal, or operational use.

Technical Specifications

• Full compliance with IECEE CEE-7 standard requirements, specifically aligned with Figure 20 specifications for non-solid pin mechanical testing
• Primary test component: Steel rod (Tige en acier) with precisely calibrated 4.8 mm diameter
• Integrated calibrated weight system for applying standardized mechanical stress during testing procedures
• Manufactured from high-strength steel and durable materials to ensure dimensional stability and long-term measurement accuracy
• Engineered to target non-solid pin structures exclusively without affecting surrounding plug components
• Calibrated for consistent force application to ensure repeatable and reliable test results
• Compatible with all CEE 7-compliant plugs featuring non-solid pins for domestic and similar electrical applications

Standardized Test Procedures

1. Inspect the test device for any damage, wear, or dimensional deviations, verifying that the steel rod diameter and integrated weight comply with IECEE CEE-7 Figure 20 specifications.
2. Prepare the test sample (plug with non-solid pins) ensuring it is clean and free from pre-existing cracks, damage, or deformations to the pins.
3. Secure the plug firmly in a stable test fixture, positioning the non-solid pin to be tested in the vertical or specified orientation as defined by IECEE CEE-7 guidelines.
4. Align the device’s steel rod with the center axis of the non-solid pin, ensuring the rod makes direct, perpendicular contact with the pin’s surface.
5. Apply the integrated weight to the steel rod, exerting the standardized force specified in IECEE CEE-7 Figure 20 requirements…
