Hi group, Does any-one know the reason/background of the ball pressure test of thermoplastic parts (IEC60950-1, clause 4.5.5) and the chosen temperature of 125C. This test is performed - for example – on the plastic parts of a direct plug-in power supply as these parts “carry” the mains power supply pins. I can’t imagine a situation there that requires such a test and certainly not at 125C. Thanks for your feedback!
