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...

MILLIVOLT DROP TEST

The millivolt drop test is generally associated with testing for weld quality on the armature. It is the best test for verifying armature weld quality. The millivolt drop test is the ultimate electrical test for detecting bad welds. Unfortunately, it is difficult to make on armatures with large diameter wire and nearly impossible to make on armatures with small wires....

The new IEC 61439 standard

The new IEC 61439 standard applies to enclosures for which the rated voltage is under 1000 V AC (at frequencies not exceeding 1000 Hz) or 1500 V DC. The standard defines the design verified ASSEMBLIES and eliminates completely the categories TTA and PTTA. In order to conform to the standard, type tests have been replaced by a design verification which can be carried ...
