2. Test conditions

The access probe is pushed against any openings of the enclosure with the force specified in Table 1. If it partly or fully penetrates, it is placed in every possible position, but in no case shall the stop face fully penetrate through the opening.

Internal barriers are considered part of the enclosure

A low-voltage supply (of not less than 40 V and not more than 50 V) in series with a suitable lamp should be connected, if necessary, between the probe and live parts inside the barrier or enclosure.

The signal-circuit method should also be applied to the moving live parts of high voltage equipment.

Internal moving parts may be operated slowly, where this is possible.
