BS1363-2 Gauges For Checking Dimensions Of Plugs Sockets Outlets For Household Plug Test
Product Information:
These measuring gauges confirm to the standard of IEC 60884-1:2013 clause 9, BS1363-2: clause 13.1.1 figure 11, 12,13,14,16b. Which are used for the dimensional measurement and verification of the plug socket for household and similar use. They are the necessary testing devices used in the laboratory and measurement test department.
Features:
Gauges for checking dimensions of plugs, sockets, and outlets are precision measurement tools used to verify the dimensional accuracy and compliance of these electrical components. These gauges are specifically designed to ensure that plugs, sockets, and outlets meet the required specifications and standards. They help assess factors such as pin spacing, pin diameter, socket depth, and overall dimensions to ensure proper fit, functionality, and safety.
These gauges typically come in the form of templates or fixtures that have cutouts, slots, or pins of specific dimensions. Here are some common types of gauges used for checking the dimensions of plugs, sockets, and outlets:
Pin Spacing Gauge: This gauge is used to measure the distance between pins in plugs or sockets. It typically consists of a template with slots or holes that correspond to the required pin spacing. The gauge is aligned with the pins, and if they fit within the designated slots, the spacing is considered within the acceptable range.
Pin Diameter Gauge: This gauge is used to measure the diameter of the pins in plugs or sockets. It typically consists of stepped pins or cylindrical probes of different diameters. The pins are inserted into the plug or socket, and the one that provides the best fit indicates the correct pin diameter.
Socket Depth Gauge: This gauge is used to measure the depth of sockets in outlets or receptacles. It typically consists of a stepped probe or a depth measuring mechanism. The gauge is inserted into the socket, and the depth is determined by the step or measurement indicator that aligns with the surface of the outlet.
Overall Dimension Gauge: This gauge is used to measure the overall dimensions of plugs, sockets, or outlets. It may include cutouts or profiles that correspond to the required dimensions of the component being measured. The gauge is placed against the plug, socket, or outlet, and if the component fits within the designated cutouts or profiles, it meets the required dimensions.
These gauges are essential tools in manufacturing, quality control, and regulatory compliance processes for electrical components. They ensure that plugs, sockets, and outlets are manufactured to the specified dimensions, allowing for proper installation, secure connections, and safe electrical operation.

Test Procedures and Operation:
Please refer to the relevant standard requirements of IEC 60884-1:2013 clause 9, BS1363-2: clause 13.1.1 figure 11, 12,13,14,16b.
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. Add anti-rust oil regularly.
