CEE-7 C 8 Wiring Channel Gauge for 10/16A 250V Two-Pole Socket-Outlets

This CEE-7 C 8 wiring channel gauge is engineered in strict accordance with IECEE CEE-7 “Specification for plugs and socket-outlets for domestic and similar purposes” C 8 standard, specifically designed for dimensional verification of wiring channels in 10/16A 250V two-pole socket-outlets. The gauge facilitates precise compliance verification during manufacturing, quality control, and installation processes, ensuring adherence to international electrical safety standards.

Specifications

• Complies with IECEE CEE-7 “Specification for plugs and socket-outlets for domestic and similar purposes” C 8 standard
• Designed for 10/16A 250V two-pole socket-outlets
• Engineered for wiring channel dimensional verification of socket-outlets
• Compatible with ordinary surface-type socket-outlets, socket-outlets fixed directly to box bottoms, and socket-outlets installed in 40mm deep mounting boxes (complying with Standard Sheet XIII or XV)
• Ensures zero protrusion when inserted into applicable socket-outlet wiring channels

Test Procedures

• For ordinary surface-type socket-outlets and socket-outlets fixed directly to box bottoms: Insert the gauge into the socket-outlet wiring channel and verify absence of protrusion
• For socket-outlets requiring mounting box installation: Prepare a 40mm deep mounting box compliant with Standard Sheet XIII or XV
• Position the gauge between the socket-outlet base and mounting box bottom
• Secure the socket-outlet base within the mounting box and verify wiring channel compatibility with the gauge
• Confirm compliance with all CEE-7 C 8 standard installation and dimensional requirements through systematic verification

Applications

• Dimensional verification and compliance inspection of wiring channels during 10/16A 250V two-pole socket-outlet production
• Quality control and acceptance testing in electrical component manufacturing facilities
• Installation verification for electrical contractors and compliance inspectors
• Laboratory testing and certification processes for socket-outlet manufacturers
