Temperature Rise Per IEC 309-1, Clause 22	Maximum 50 K rise at full rated current.

MECHANICAL
Cable Secureness Per IEC 309, Clause 23	See Table 2
Impact Per IEC 309, Clause 24	A device is wired with a 2.25m length of flexible cord and dropped from a height of 75 cm, 8 times. The device is then tested for applicable degrees of protection against moisture.

ENVIRONMENTAL
Flammability	Self-extinguishing Per IEC 309-1, Clause 27
Ambient Temperature Range	Minimum: -25� C with impact Maximum: 90� C
Moisture Resistance	Watertight (IP67): Device immersed for 24 hours in water at a temp. of 25� C, the highest point of the device being 5cm (2") below the water level. Splashproof (IP44): Device is sprayed with water for 10 minutes and immediately afterwards subjected to splashing water in all directions (360�).
UV Resistance	Exposed plastic materials are UV stabilized.
