• Voltage Drop Test per IEC/EN 60947-7-1
The voltage drop test evaluates clamping point quality under stress such vibration, temperature change, industrial climate and salt spray,
in order verify that the contact point gas-tight. 285-195)
using mm² (4/0 AWG) fine-stranded copper conductors:
The CAGE CLAMP® and Push-in CAGE
CLAMP® connections enclose and contain
fine-stranded conductors. The diagram shows that the
voltage drop constant, far beyond the 192
cycles required IEC 60947-7-1.
