IK Test / Impact Test:
The IK test, also known as the impact test, evaluates the mechanical impact resistance of products. It assesses the ability of products to withstand impact forces and protect against damage, ensuring ruggedness and durability in harsh operating conditions.

IP Test (Ingress Protection Test):
The IP test, also known as the ingress protection test, assesses the degree of protection provided by products against solid particles and liquids. It assigns an IP rating based on the level of protection against ingress, ensuring that products meet specified environmental protection requirements.

Low Temperature:
The low-temperature test exposes products to extremely cold temperatures, simulating cold climate conditions. It assesses the effects of low temperatures on product performance, functionality, and materials, ensuring reliable operation in freezing conditions.

Needle Flame Test:
The needle flame test evaluates the fire resistance of products by subjecting them to a controlled flame ignition source. It assesses the ability of products to withstand ignition from small flames and prevent fire propagation, ensuring compliance with fire safety standards.

Photometric Test:
The photometric test evaluates the light output, distribution, and quality of lighting products. It measures parameters such as luminous flux, luminous intensity, and colour rendering, ensuring that products meet specified photometric performance requirements.

Rain Test:
The rain test assesses the water resistance of products by subjecting them to simulated rainfall. It evaluates the ability of products to prevent water ingress and maintain operational integrity in wet environments, ensuring reliability and durability.

Salt Fog Test:
The salt fog test evaluates the corrosion resistance of products by exposing them to a salt-laden fog environment. It assesses the ability of products to withstand salt corrosion and maintain operational integrity in marine and coastal environments.

Salt Spray Test:
Similar to the salt fog test, the salt spray test evaluates the corrosion resistance of products by subjecting them to a salt spray environment. It assesses the ability of products to withstand salt corrosion and maintain operational integrity in harsh outdoor environments.

Shock Test:
The shock test evaluates the mechanical shock resistance of products by subjecting them to controlled shock impulses. It assesses the ability of products to withstand mechanical shocks and vibrations during transportation, handling, or use.

Temperature Shock:
The temperature shock test evaluates the performance of products under rapid temperature changes. It subjects products to alternating hot and cold temperature cycles, assessing their ability to withstand thermal stress and prevent damage or failure.

Topple Test:
The topple test evaluates the stability of products by subjecting them to tilting or tipping forces. It assesses the ability of products to remain stable and upright under various conditions, ensuring safety and preventing accidental tipping or falls.

Tracking Index:
The tracking index test evaluates the electrical tracking resistance of insulating materials. It assesses the resistance of materials to surface tracking and erosion when exposed to electrical stress, ensuring safety and reliability in electrical applications.

Vibration:
The vibration test evaluates the mechanical vibration resistance of products. It subjects products to controlled vibration frequencies and amplitudes, assessing their ability to withstand vibrations during transportation, operation, or use.
