Safety and Compliance

February 29, 2024

Line8 has full compliance with Australian regulatory body Electrical Equipment Safety System (EESS).

Line8 has been tested by international testing laboratory Intertek, and has passed all required Australian regulatory checks.

A safe power track needs to have the following features:

An adequate gauge of the electrical conductor to carry the rated current
Proper grounding for enclosures and housing
Earth contact has to be first to make a connection and be the last to disconnect.
The resistance, contact quality and gauge needs to be equal to or more than the rated current
Well-engineered electrical path with as few as possible interconnects
Adequate cooling on all electrical conductors to prevent overheating in the event of overload
Overload protection to ensure that the load is less than the rated current of the power track
Durability and high MTBF for all mechanical and electrical components
Mechanisms which prevent or eliminate electrical arcing which will damage electrical contacts and raise resistance
Proper electrical switch design for the designed electrical load using precious metals to ensure a low resistance, corrosion-proof properties of the electrical switch.
Mechanisms to ensure the correct orientation and contact order of the electrical connection
Use of proper materials for insulators that have high electrical strength with good insulation properties with fire-resistance, heat resistance, and low wear properties.

Line8 has included all the above features in its power socket systems, and has been established and used by customers where we are based, in Singapore, since 2014.
