Gauges for 10/16A 250V Two-pole Plugs with Side Earthing-contacts According to CEE 7 C12

Gauges for 10/16A 250V Two-pole Plugs with Side Earthing-contacts According to CEE 7 C12 is specially designed to assess whether the structure and size of 10/16A 250V two-pole plugs with side earthing-contacts comply with the IECEE CEE-7 C12 standard. It offers stable and reliable performance, as its dimensions, tolerances, material selection, hardness, and surface roughness all meet strict standard requirements. With a material featuring a small thermal expansion coefficient, the gauge maintains consistent dimensional accuracy, ensuring precise and trustworthy testing results for relevant plug products.

Specifications:
• Rated current compatibility: 10/16A
• Rated voltage compatibility: 250V
• Applicable standard: IECEE CEE-7 “Specification for plugs and socket-outlets for domestic and similar purpose”
• Gauge function: For interchangeability testing of two-pole plugs with side earthing-contacts
• Material hardness: Minimum 50HRC
• Material characteristic: Small thermal expansion coefficient
• Key dimensions (in mm): 32.6±0.03, ϕ37.1±0.03, 5.1±0.01, 19±0.05
• Radius specifications (in mm): R=0.5, R=1
• Core requirement: Plugs with side earthing-contacts shall be completely insertable into the gauge without undue force

Test Procedures:
• Prepare a clean and flat test environment to avoid dust or debris affecting the testing process.
• Inspect the gauge’s own condition, including dimensions, surface smoothness, and hardness, to confirm compliance with standard specifications before testing.
• Take the two-pole plug with side earthing-contacts to be tested and ensure it is free from damage or deformation.
• Align the plug with the gauge’s insertion port, ensuring proper positioning of the side earthing-contacts.
• Attempt to insert the plug completely into the gauge without applying undue force.
• Check if the plug can be fully inserted; if insertion is incomplete or requires excessive force, the plug fails the test.
• Document the test results based on whether the complete insertion requirement is met.

Applications:
• Quality inspection of 10/16A 250V two-pole plugs with side earthing-contacts in the electronics industry.
• Compliance testing for plug manufacturers in the electrical appliance sector to meet IECEE CEE-7 C12 standards.
• R&D testing during the design and development phase of two-pole plugs with side earthing-contacts.
• Quality control and verification processes in industries producing similar electrical connection products with side earthing-contacts.
• Conformity assessment for domestic and similar purpose two-pole plugs to ensure interchangeability as per standard requirements.
