Introduction
Non-electric detonators, electric detonators, electronic detonators, plain detonators, detonating cord
relays and surface connectors might be accidentally dropped from a loading basket, from the edge of a
bench, or down an unloaded borehole. This test assesses the ability of detonators, relays and surface
connectors to withstand being dropped without detonating.
