IP rating 2X finger safe
IP rating 2X finger safe
(OP)
I'm searching for a precise definition of "Finger Safe" according to IEC 60529 which defines IP2X as "finger safe" for diameters > 12.5mm. Does thes mean a cylinder of 12.5mm dia. can not touch the contact? Does the cylinder have a flat end or is there a radius on the end of the cylinder? What is this radius? Anyone have link to a drawing that better defines this 12.5mm "finger"
Thanks
Thanks

How could you be possibly claim compliance to the standard if you don't even have a copy of the standard?

But it really doesn't matter if you own the standards as long as your product makes it through the testing agency. Unless you just claim "compliance" but don't actually get your product tested by an NRTL. Thats a no-no that happens way too often.
