如果测试失败，VDE证书上将加印以下内容：
The above mentioned plugs with cord are not unlimited suitable for use
on cord extension sets, cord sets, portable multiple socket-outlets,
cable reels and equipment with integrated socket-outlets according this
standard, which did not have a suitable current limiting means.
The proposition of "Committee for Technical Work Equipment and Consumer
Products (AtAV)" dated 2008-05-20 to cancel the standard DIN VDE
0620:2005-04 (Plugs and socket-outlets for household and similar
purposes) from the list of "presumption of conformity afflicted
standards" has been acepted during a written decision procedure
(mentioned in a notification from the agency of AtAV with date
2008-08-21).
For this reason it is necessary to complement the testing process of
standard DIN VDE 0620-1:2005-04 with the new relevant safety
regulations.
That means for example that for the unlimited use of plugs additional
temperature rise tests with higher current must be performed (0,5 mm²
with 3,1 A; 0,75 mm² with 12,5 A; 1,0 mm² and 1,5 mm² with 20 A).
If it is not possible to perform this temperature rise tests with the
higher currents or the required results will not be fulfilled, the usage
of the plugs must be limited in the approval.
