This scenaro comes up often in our designs. We typically use 0.010 or 0.020 inch thick Nomex (vulcanized fiber) instead of plastic. The Nomex is UL recognized, 94V-0, very low cost and can be bought in sheets or punched to the exact size.
Thanks, Bryan. From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Sent: 8/12/03 1:55 PM Subject: 94V-0 question I need a sheet of plastic that goes between a PCB and a metal enclosure. This is to make a creepage spec. What plastics are good for this? Will polycarbonate be suitable and have a 94V-0 rating? Thanks.
