CEI 23-50 V4 Figure C14a Gauge

CEI 23-50 V4 Figure C14a Gauge is engineered to adhere to the requirements outlined in par. 19.101, focusing on the verification of electrical continuity and retention capabilities when specific plugs are used with P40 sockets. It offers two tailored versions corresponding to different front profile heights of the plugs, delivering accurate and consistent testing outcomes to ensure compliance with relevant industry standards.

Specifications:
• Overall dimension: 50 ±0.5 mm
• Dimension: 35 ±0.5 mm
• Dimension: 26 ±0.2 mm
• Radius: R 2.5 ±0.01 mm
• Maximum dimension: 2 mm
• Diameter: ø4.9 +0.02 mm
• Feature: 3 sets of ø4.9 +0.02 mm diameter components
• Front profile height options: 10 mm and 12 mm

Test Procedures:
• Prepare the testing environment by ensuring the gauge and P40 socket are free of dust, dirt, or any defects that could impact test accuracy.
• Choose the correct gauge version based on the 10 mm or 12 mm front profile height of the plug to be tested.
• Align the gauge properly with the P40 socket and insert it smoothly into the socket’s designated position.
• Conduct electrical continuity testing using standard, compatible equipment to confirm proper electrical connection.
• Evaluate the retention performance by checking the secure engagement between the gauge and the socket’s retention structures.
• Document all test data to determine if the P40 socket meets the specified continuity and retention requirements.
• Extract the gauge carefully from the socket after testing to prevent damage to both the gauge and the socket.

Applications:
• Factory quality control inspections for P40 sockets to ensure they comply with par. 19.101 standards during production.
• Regular maintenance and performance checks of electrical devices fitted with P40 sockets in commercial or industrial settings.
• Regulatory compliance testing for electrical products that integrate the corresponding plugs and P40 sockets.
• Laboratory research and development activities to assess the long-term reliability and durability of P40 sockets.
• On-site testing of electrical installations featuring P40 sockets to guarantee safe and effective operation in real-world scenarios.
