During the short-time withstand current test,
the ground conductor rail-mount terminal
blocks are subjected three times for one sec-
ond each current load 120 A/mm². For example, the short-time with-
stand current test per IEC/EN 60947-7-1, through rail-mount terminal blocks must capable withstanding for one second the rated
short-time withstand current which corresponds 120 A/mm² its nominal cross section.com

Technical Information
• Short-Time Withstand Current Test (Short-Circuit Withstand Capacity) per IEC/EN 60947-7-1
Apart from the rated current that can constantly applied electrical device, operation-related short peak currents consistently occur
in electrical installations, e. Also, the event short circuit, high current can flow for short time until the
fuse element melts.
