IEC EN 60906-2 IEC Plug and Socket System for Household and Similar Purposes - Part 2: Standard Test for Plugs and Sockets 15 A 125 V AC and 20 A 125 V AC

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of IEC EN 60906-2 testing. This part of IE EN 60906 applies to the IEC plug and socket system rated at 15 A 125 V ac. Applies to the connection of equipment to distribution systems with rated voltages between 20 V and 125 V ac, for domestic and similar purposes at 100 A 130 V ac.

In this standard, sockets are classified according to their intended use:

• Sockets for circuits where a single grounding circuit provides protective grounding for the connected equipment and, if any, exposed conductive parts of the socket;
• Receptacles for circuits where electrical noise immunity is desired for the ground circuit of the connected equipment.

The equipment ground circuit is electrically separated from the protective ground circuit, if any, provided for the exposed conductive parts of the outlet.

The purpose of this part of IEC EN 60906 is to provide a safe, compact and practical IEC 125 V plug and socket system standard that may be adopted by many countries as their national standard now or in the near future. It is therefore recommended for any country that needs a new or replacement system for the nominal voltage range of 100 V to 130 V ac.

Plugs and sockets of the IEC 125 V system shall comply with the relevant standard sheets of this standard. In addition, plugs and sockets shall comply with all relevant requirements of IEC EN 60884-1.
