Hi Sudhakar, Yes, but how would you plan to keep that impact hammer in calibration. Note that the 50mm steel ball essentially maintains its calibration unless it is damaged.
I look forward to your reply.

IEC60950-1 2005 and UL, CSA variation Hi Guys, Can the ball drop test be conducted using impact hammer ? I do not see any credible reason for not using the impact hammer. Impact test using impact hammer delivers x amount of Joules energy upon impact similar to the dropping of steel ball of certain size from certain height.
