Dear Barry 

Thanks for your kind answer.

I know that Australia standard of glow-wire test.
Because, I have some experience of glow-wire failure 
when I  requested by test lab. in Australia last year.

In the IEC 335-1 (third edition) demand  tip temperature of glow-wire
750 centigrade in case of unattended appliance and current exceed 0.5mA.
However, EN and Australia standard want more sever condition as 850.

You mentioned that the current of connection is the main point to 
decide tip temperature. But I do not know  what is the correct 
mathematics calculation method  to choice glow wire tip temperature.

If you know it, please tell me about.

Best regards,

Jae-won Yoo
