Energy-absorbing lanyards are subjected to a fall test, designed to assess the lanyard's performance in terms of its ability to arrest a fall over a maximum distance, while maintaining the force at an appropriate maximum. In particular, the lanyard must not deploy (stretch, open, tear) beyond a maximum length of 1.75 metres, with a maximum force of 6 kN, following a fall of a minimum solid mass of 100 kg, over a distance equal to twice the length of the lanyard.

When the energy absorbers are intended to be sold separately from the lanyard (i.e. as a component), they are extended with a chain over a length of 2 metres, the mass being dropped over a distance of 4 metres.
