Glow wire testing is used to evaluate the fire resistance of materials, especially plastics and insulating components used in electrical and electronic products. In this test, a heated wire is applied to the material to simulate overheating conditions that may occur during electrical faults. The material is then observed to check if it ignites, how long it burns, and whether it self-extinguishes. This testing helps manufacturers ensure product safety, reduce fire risks, and comply with international standards for reliable and safe electrical components.
