Clearances & Creepage distances for LV panel boards

Clearances distances

Shortest distance in the air between two live conductors or between live

Conductors and exposed conductive parts.

14 mm for 12 kV impulse voltage

8 mm for 8 kV impulse voltage

5.5 mm for 6 kV impulse voltage

The IEC 60439-1 and IEC 61439-2 standards stipulate the minimum clearances

Required to withstand impulse voltage up to 2000 m above sea level.

Pollution degree 3.

 

Creepage distances

Shortest distance along an insulated material surface between two live

Conductors or between live conductors and exposed conductive parts.

16 mm for rated insulation voltage 1000 V AC and DC

12.5 mm for rated insulation voltage 750 V AC and DC

8 mm for rated insulation voltage 500 V AC and DC

See IEC 60439-1 and IEC 61439-2 table 16.

 

Pollution degree 3,

Material group 3a.
