Fire hazard testing

Part 2-10: Glowing/hot-wire based test methods – Glow-wire apparatus and common test procedure

(IEC 60695-2-10:2021); German version EN IEC 60695-2-10:2021
Class/Status: Standard, valid
Released: 2023-10
VDE Art. No.: 0400613

This part of IEC 60695 specifies the glow-wire apparatus and common test procedure to simulate the effect of thermal stresses which may be produced by heat sources such as glowing elements or overloaded resistors, for short periods. By this simulation technique a fire hazard can be assessed..
