IEC 62196-1: 2022 Drop Test Equipment For Rewireable EV Plugs And Vehicle Connectors
Product Information For Drop Test Equipment:
This testing device is required by IEC 62196-1 Ed.4CDV 2022 clause 26.3, figure 19.
It is used to test the mechanical strength of rewirable plugs and vehicle connector which is equipped with flexible cable.
Test principle: The free end of the cable and an additional rope or other flexible means, etc., attached to the flexible cable, both having a total length of 2,25 m, is fixed to a wall at a height of 1 m above the floor.
The sample is held so that the cable is horizontal and then it is allowed to fall on to a concrete floor. This is done eight times; the cable being rotated through 45° at its fixing each time.
Technical Parameters For Drop Test Equipment:
| Drop height | 1000mm |
| Dropping times | 8 times |
| Rotating angle | 45°, it can be rotated in all sides |
| Equipment size | L*W*H 2300*500*860mm |
| Conforms to standard | IEC 62196-1Ed.4CDV 2020 clause 26.3, fig 19. |
Test Procedures For Drop Test Equipment:
Non-rewirable plugs and vehicle connectors are tested with a small section (approximately 200 mm) of the flexible cable as delivered.
The free end of the cable and an additional rope or other flexible means, etc., attached to the flexible cable, both having a total length of 2,25 m, is fixed to a wall at a height of 1 m above the floor, as shown in Figure 19.
The sample is held so that the cable is horizontal and then it is allowed to fall on to a concrete floor. This is done eight times; the cable being rotated through 45 ° at its fixing each time.
Test Principle For Drop Test Equipment:
Rewirable EV plugs and vehicle connectors are fitted with a small section of the lightest type of flexible cable of the smallest cross-sectional area recommended by the manufacturer.
Non-rewirable EV plugs and vehicle connectors are tested with a small section of the flexible cable as delivered.
The free end of the cable and an additional rope or other flexible means, etc., attached to the flexible cable, both having a total length of 2,25 m, is fixed to a wall at a height of 1 m above the floor,as shown in Figure 19.
The sample is held so that the cable is horizontal and then it is allowed to fall onto a concrete floor. This is done eight times; the cable being rotated through 45° at its fixing each time.
After the test, the samples shall show no damage within the meaning of this document; in particular, no part shall have become detached or loosened. The samples shall not expose parts likely to become live. The samples shall maintain their IP rating.
Accessories with a degree of protection IP44 and higher shall withstand the relevant test specified in Clause 20.
Accessories with enclosures of thermoplastic material shall withstand the test of 21.4.
NOTE: Small chips and dents, which do not adversely affect the protection against electric shock or moisture, are neglected.
