IEC 60598-1 Clause 4.12.5 Gland Test and Test Device.
IEC 60598-1 Clause 4.12.5 Gland Test and Test Device The IEC 60598-1 Clause 4.12.5 Gland Test is a test conducted
This device tests the mechanical strength and clamping of screw glands and cable entries on luminaires in accordance with IEC 60598-1, clause 4.12.5. Stainless-steel rods from ø5 to ø32 mm and calibrated weights (20, 40, 50 and 60 N) are applied through a ø250 mm wheel to verify that the gland retains the cable and resists pull-out under load. ULMEKA designs and manufactures the device; the rod set, weights and fixturing are configured to the samples on request.
This device performs the gland (cable entry) test described in IEC/EN 60598-1, Clause 4.12.5.
Standard reference
IEC/EN 60598-1 Clause 4.12.5 specifies the gland (cable entry) test for luminaires, confirming that the cable gland clamps the supply cable adequately and maintains the ingress protection and strain relief. The device applies the clamping and pull conditions of the clause.
