Has anyone ever used this technology on a pcb that was required to pass
agency creepage and clearance requirements?  Which agency was involved, and
how did they handle it?

Subject: RE: Conductive Conformal Coatings for reducing PCB Emissions



Chris, 
They way it was described to me...
The conformal coating would encase the board, creating a sort of shield. 

Understandably, care is taken to prevent shorting of circuits.
Whoever designed the technology has certainly dealt with those concerns.
