- Designed for testing 2P + AC 250 V 16 A plugs’ maximum withdrawal force
- Key dimensional specifications (in mm): 19⁺⁰·⁰⁰/₀, 18±0.5, 32±0.5, 3±0.5, 4.86⁻⁰·⁰¹, minimum 16.5 mm, minimum 55 mm, 105 mm
- Material specifications:
- Handle: Insulating material (type selected by the manufacturer)
- Body and pins: Hardened stainless steel (type selected by the manufacturer)
Test Procedures:
- Prepare the 2P + AC 250 V 16 A plug and matching socket to be tested, ensuring they are clean, undamaged, and placed in a stable testing environment.
- Inspect the gauge to confirm it is intact, free from deformities, and meets the specified dimensional and material requirements.
- Insert the plug fully into the socket in accordance with normal usage specifications to ensure a secure connection.
- Attach the gauge to the plug correctly following standard operating guidelines to measure the withdrawal force.
- Apply a gradual and steady pulling force to the gauge until the plug is disconnected from the socket, recording the maximum force value during this process.
- Compare the recorded maximum withdrawal force with the requirements specified in VDE 0620-1:2010 to evaluate if the plug and socket comply with the standard.
