Single Wire Cable Burning Tester
Category：Flammability Tester
Introduction
The instrument is applicable to the test method and test requirements of single insulated wire or cable combustion under the prescribed flame condition.
The Single Wire Cable Burning Tester is designed to assess the flammability and fire resistance of individual insulated wires and cables. This crucial test determines how a single cable reacts when exposed to a controlled flame, helping to ensure electrical safety in various applications. Typically, the cable specimen is mounted vertically and subjected to a standardized flame for a specific duration.
The performance of the cable is evaluated based on several factors, including the extent of flame propagation along the cable, the time it takes for the flame to extinguish after the heat source is removed, and the presence of any flaming droplets that may fall from the burning cable. Compliance with standards such as IEC 60332-1-2 and UL 1581 is a key objective of this testing, providing valuable data for manufacturers and regulatory bodies to ensure the safety and reliability of electrical wiring in diverse environments.
