Electrical relays - Tests and measurements - Part 37: Terminal temperature rise at rated load (IEC 63522-37:2025); German version EN IEC 63522-37:2025
Elektrische Relais – Mess- und Prüfverfahren – Teil 37: Temperaturanstieg der Anschlüsse bei Nennlast (IEC 63522-37:2025); Deutsche Fassung EN IEC 63522-37:2025
Overview
This part of lEC 63522 is used for testing all kinds of electrical relays and for evaluating their ability to perform under expected conditions of transportation, storage and all aspects of operational use. The object of this document is to define a standard test method to measure terminal temperature rise at rated load, included solder terminals, flat quick-connect terminations, screw and screwless type terminals, alternative termination types and sockets. Application of this document increases investment security for manufacturers and users, while testing laboratories and manufacturers are provided with defined information for testing.
