Hey, for those labs where safety is top priority, HongCe came up with this Tracking Index Tester. It checks if solid materials can stop electrical leaks when things get dirty or wet. It has steady controls, drips liquid just right, and is built to last.
If you're in manufacturing, testing, or signing off on products, this tester helps make sure insulation follows IEC 60112 standards, along with similar guidelines . Use it daily!
Where, in IEC standards for material or for electrical equipment specifications, or in other standards, a proof test only is required, 50 drop tests shall be made in accordance with Clause 8 but at the single voltage specified. The required number of specimens shall withstand the test period up to at least 25 s after the fiftieth drop has fallen without tracking failure, and without a persistent flame occurring.
Operation of the over-current device by air arcs does not constitute a tracking failure.
The proof voltage shall be an integer multiple of 25 V.
Determination of the comparative tracking index requires the determination of the maximum voltage at which five specimens withstand the test period for 50 drops without failure and whether, at a voltage of 25 V lower than the maximum 50 drop figure, the specimen withstands 1 00 drops. If this is not the case, the maximum 1 00 drop withstand voltage has to be determined.
