Spillage Test Apparatus (MODEL: PG-SGA)

1.Introduction

The spillage test apparatus meets the requirements of IEC60335-2-15 clause 15.2 and figure 101,  for checking the connectors with spillage protection, to ensure that the connectors are not affected by liquids when installed in a rated voltage base according to the manufacturer’s installation instructions. the spillage test is carried out with the appliance deviating from the normal position of use by an angle not exceeding 5°.

Place the kettles on a plane inclined at an angle of 20° to the horizontal, and 30ml of water containing approximately 1% NACL is poured onto the top rim in the most unfavourable place. The solution is poured steadily through a tube having an inner diameter of 8mm over a period of 2s. The lower end of the tube being 200mm above the appliance. A further quantity, equal to 15% of the rated capacity of the kettel, is then added as quickly as possible.

Spillage Test Solutions:

1). Fixed the sample (like kettles and rice cooker) on the workbench, and filled with water containing approximate 1%NaCl at a constant speed for 1 min. And then carry out the electric strength test.
2). Place the sample on a plane inclined at an angle of 20° to the horizontal. Filled with water containing approximately 1% NaCl to the maximum level. If this indication is visible from the filling position, otherwise until water spills from the sample, a further quantity equal to 15% of the rated capacity of the kettle is then added as quickly as possible. And then carry out again the electric strength test.
