If UL-recognized PCB material, that is rated for your operating conditions,
is used, spacing is determined by the min thickness of insulation (0.4mm).

"For the inner layers of multi-layer boards, the distance between two
adjacent tracks on the same
layer of a printed board is treated as distance through insulation (see
2.10.5.1)."

Of course, where PCB features are "exposed", spacing is conventional.

Brian

Subject: UL 60950 creepage and clearance

Dear Group Members,

I need your help to find an answer for one of our hardware engineers.  The
question is

What is required for creepage and clearance of 230VAC hot, neutral and earth
ground that is on internal layers of a PCB per Section 2.10.5.3 of UL 60950?

The PCB is a multilayer PCB.

Please let me know if you need more detail information.

Your help is highly appreciated!

Best regards,
Grace Lin
