As you continue to pull the hand lever slowly, the tractive force increases, which works upon the cable as a
retention force. An additional tractive force develops, which works
upon the cable connection.
Increase the force until the cable snaps off at its most fragile
point, which should be the connection between the cable and the
test component.
During the measurement, the force progression can be read off
the display.
The peak value, which mostly appears before the connection
snaps up, is captured at 1000Hz and is indicated when the PEAK-
button is pressed (so long as the drag indicator function was not
active).
Depending on the wire strength and the related standard, the following tensile strength should at least be
achieved.
