Household Appliance Power Cord Flexing Test Apparatus for IEC 60335-1 Cable Durability Evaluation

The Household Appliance Power Cord Bending Tester is a precision-designed IEC testing device designed to evaluate the mechanical durability and bending resistance of power cords for household and similar appliances.

This testing system conforms to IEC 60335-1 and can simulate the repeated bending movements that occur during normal use of appliances. It provides reliable and repeatable test results for manufacturers, laboratories, certification bodies, and quality control departments.

Power cords are among the most stress-bearing components in electrical equipment. Continuous bending, pulling, and movement can lead to conductor fatigue, insulation damage, or premature product failure. This equipment accurately simulates the movement of power cords in real-world use.

IEC 60335-1

Household and Similar Electrical Appliances – Safety

Clause 25.14

Appliances provided with a supply cord and which are moved during operation shall be constructed so that the supply cord is adequately protected against excessive flexing where it enters the appliance.

The test apparatus performs the prescribed flexing test to verify compliance.
