DIN VDE 0620-1 Lehre 16e Socket Gauge with 18N

This DIN VDE 0620-1 Lehre 16e Socket Gauge with 18N is precision-manufactured in strict compliance with the relevant requirements of the VDE 0620-1:2010 standard, specifically aligned with DIN 49441 Form R2 specifications. It is dedicated to testing the maximum withdrawal force of contact sockets for corresponding plugs, with a specified 18N force parameter, ensuring that the connection reliability and structural stability of plugs and sockets meet industry safety and performance standards to prevent accidental disconnection during use.

Specifications:
• Complies with DIN VDE 0620-1 Lehre 16e
• Designed for testing the maximum withdrawal force of plug contact sockets
• Specified force parameter: 18N
• Key dimensional specifications (in mm): Ø 4.86⁻⁰·⁰¹, dimension range of Ø 6 to 10 mm
• Used to verify the structural and dimensional compliance of plugs and sockets with standard requirements

Test Procedures:
• Prepare the plug and its matching contact 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 force parameter requirements.
• Insert the plug fully into the contact socket in accordance with normal usage to ensure a secure connection.
• Attach the gauge to the plug correctly following standard operating guidelines for withdrawal force testing.
• Apply a gradual and controlled pulling force via the gauge, targeting the 18N parameter, and observe whether the plug remains securely connected or record the actual maximum withdrawal force.
• Compare the test results with the requirements specified in VDE 0620-1:2010 and DIN 49441 Form R2 to evaluate if the contact socket complies with the standard.

Applications:
• Maximum withdrawal force testing and quality inspection of plug contact sockets in the electronics industry.
• Compliance verification of plug and socket connection reliability during production in the electrical appliance manufacturing sector.
• Routine quality control in plug and socket production enterprises to ensure stable withdrawal force performance of contact sockets.
• Performance inspection of household and similar-purpose electrical plugs and their matching contact sockets.
• Research and development testing for new plug and contact socket designs to meet maximum withdrawal force standard requirements.
• Third-party certification and inspection services for plug and contact socket products corresponding to DIN 49441 Form R2.
