What Type of Tests are Required?
There are several tests conducted on insulated tools to ensure they receive the VDE rating. The exams include the Voltage Piece Test, Cold Shock Test, Adhesion Test, Pressure Test, and Combustion Test. Each one is designed to ensure that anyone holding the tool is safe if they come into contact with voltages up to 1000 Volts AC.
What does VDE Stand for on your insulated tools?
VDE is an acronym for Verband der Elektrotechnik. It’s the organization that’s responsible for testing and certifying tools and appliances. The VDE Testing and Certification Institute is renowned around the world for its assessment of electrical engineering devices, components, and systems.
Why is Certification Important?
Certification provides users of Wiha electrical tools security. VDE certification is proof that a piece of equipment has undergone strenuous testing, is designed according to detailed specifications and will keep a user safe in unforeseen circumstances.
How are VDE Certified Tools Tested?
VDE Cold Shock Test
The tools are first cooled down to -25 °C ( -13°F), then during this process, the insulating material must retain its toughness so that it does not break when subjected to impacts and jolts.
VDE Voltage Piece Test
Our tools are submerged in water for 24 hours. After this period they are then electrified with 10,000V AC for three minutes. Neither a spark over nor a disruptive discharge through the insulation may occur. If and when no current is detected, they are approved for up to 1,000 V AC (and 1,500 V DC) earning the VDE Certification.
VDE Combustion Test
When exposed to a flame for 10 seconds, the insulating material must not continue to burn, but instead extinguish.
