Hello Group, I have a question regarding the Electric Strength test in 60950-1 section 5.2. It says in that section that you have a failure or the insulation broke down when the current which flows as a result of the application of the test voltage rapidly increases in an uncontrolled manner. So, is there an exact current limit at which it is considered to have "shorted"? And if so, is this printed in any standard? Any insight in this would be greatly appreciated.
