Clearance and Creepage Determining Process

Normally, the product specifications contain sufficient information allowing insulation coordination definitions such as:

  • Functional blocks on circuit board
  • System Voltage
  • Environment conditions (pollution degree) for circuit board
  • Mechanical constrains around circuit board. For example, limited height, closed to the conductive parts connected to earth

The process of the insulation distances determining is shown in Figure 2-1.
