Testing Principle
During the test, the mass flow controller precisely adjusts the gas-to-air ratio, producing a stable and controllable high-temperature flame. The test cable is subjected to continuous flame while all cores are energized at rated voltage and a load current close to 0.1 A.
A continuous monitoring system observes the circuit status in real-time. Any short-circuit or open-circuit condition triggers an immediate signal, allowing evaluation of whether the sample maintains circuit integrity under the specified flame and loading conditions.
