IEC 60884-1 Clause 24.12 3mm Test Rod for Plug Barrier Strength and Accessibility Testing
IEC 60884-1 Clause 24.12 3mm Test Rod for Plug Barrier Strength and Accessibility Testing
Product Description:
The 3mm Test Rod is a precision-engineered test probe designed in full compliance with IEC 60884-1:2022, Clause 24.12, specifically for evaluating the mechanical strength and effectiveness of barriers in plugs and socket-outlets.
Manufactured from high-quality steel, the rod features a 3 mm cylindrical body and a hemispherical tip with a 1.5 mm radius, ensuring accurate and repeatable test results. During testing, the rod is applied perpendicularly to the mounting surface at the most unfavorable position for 10 seconds, using a force equal to 1.5 times the maximum plug withdrawal force, as required by the standard.
This test rod is widely used by testing laboratories, certification bodies, and manufacturers to verify product compliance, safety, and reliability before certification or market release.
Key Features:
Fully compliant with IEC 60884-1:2022 Clause 24.12
Precision-machined steel structure for durability and accuracy
Hemispherical end design ensures standardized force application
Suitable for plug and socket-outlet barrier strength verification
Reliable tool for routine inspection and type testing

The test probe doesn’t have built-in force, if specific applied force required, the test probe should work together with a force gauge. At the end of our probe handle, there is a M6 thread hole to match the force gauge. Showing as following reference picture:
Notice:
1. Please do not damage the appliance shape (such as scratching, bending, etc.).
2. Prevented from dust and moisture environment, in order to avoid the oxidation to affect the dimensional accuracy.
3. Be careful of electric shock.
