Introduction
At blasting it is very important from a safety perspective to be aware about the impulse required for
possible initiation of the detonators. To avoid inadvertent initiation, the shot-firer needs to get
information about the levels for all-fire current as well as the level for no-fire current.

1 Scope
This document specifies a method for determining the all-fire impulse and the no-fire impulse of electric
detonators.
2 Normative references
The following documents are referred to in the text in such a way that some or all of their content
constitutes requirements of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For
undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.
prEN 13857-1:2021, Explosives for civil uses — Part 1: Terminology
EN 13763-1:2004, Explosives for civil uses - Detonators and relays - Part 1: Requirements
3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in prEN 13857-1:2021, and the
following apply.
3.1
all-fire impulse
minimum electrical energy needed to initiate all of the detonators connected in series, divided by the total
resistance of the complete round
3.2
no-fire impulse
maximum electrical energy divided by the total resistance of the complete round, which, when delivered
in a short time, causes none of the detonators to initiate
4 Principle
The test piece is subjected to a current pulse of determined energy. Record whether initiation occurs. In
a first step the pulse for 50 % firing is determined as a starting point for a subsequent PROBIT test. With
the results of the latter the no-fire impulse and the all-fire impulse are calculated.
5 Apparatus
5.1 Standard apparatus
Square pulse current supply, with the following characteristics:
a) a stabilized current with a tolerance on the output of ± 1 % of the set value (see 7.3.2);
b) a square pulse with a tolerance of ± 1 % of the set duration (see 7.3.1);
c) a current overshoot of not more than 10 % of the set current and duration not greater than 50 μs (on
pure resistive load);
d) rise time for the current of not more than 50 μs (on pure resistive load).
5.2 Alternative apparatus
Alternatively, the following apparatus may be used: a capacitor, an adjustable DC voltage generator, an
adjustable resistor and a fast non-arcing and bounce-free current switch with the following
characteristics:
prEN 13763-19:2021 (E)
a) a capacitance (C) with a tolerance not greater than ± 5 % of the set value;
b) a voltage with a tolerance not greater than ± 1 % of the set value;
c) a resistance (R) with a tolerance not greater than ± 1 % of the set value.
The time constant (RC) of the circuit, which is calculated as the product of R, resistor, and C, capacitor,
shall be shorter than one tenth of the thermal time constant of the fuse head. The resistance of the circuit
should be varied.

6 Preparation and handling of test samples and test pieces
Test samples for detonators should be handled according to EN ISO/IEC 17025:2017, 7.4.
Depending on the number of levels of the PBBS test (see EN 13763-1:2004, Annex C), 170 to 250
detonators of the same type are needed (i.e. same bridge wire ignition system). If the detonators form
part of a series with different delay times, select detonators with delay times distributed as evenly as
possible throughout the series.
NOTE For the purpose of the test, bare fuse heads can be used instead of complete detonators.
7 Procedure
7.1 Test temperature
Condition the detonators for at least 2 h at a temperature of (20 ± 5) °C and at a relative humidity not
greater than 60 % and carry out the test at the same temperature and humidity.
In the case where the test items show for one level only no-fire and for the next higher level only fire, the
t shall be calculated by taking the mean between these two levels and the standard deviation s shall be
0,5
calculated by using the interval between the two levels and the number of trials as given in the Annex A.
7.2 Preliminary test
7.2.1 Preliminary test with apparatus
Carry out a preliminary test (for example a Bruceton test), using 3
