Flame & Other Plastics Testing
Educated Design & Development, Inc. (ED&D)
Plastics are tested to determine their flammability burning characteristics (Flame rating), their ignition potential due to thermal and electrical sources, their resistance to electrical tracking, and other electrical characteristics. The specific test required on a plastic depends on the type of component or end-use product, as well as the environment in which the plastic is used. This test equipment meets most UL, CSA, IEC, EN and other international safety standards.
