IEC 60815 Pollution Guide

Determine the Site Pollution Severity (SPS) and Minimum Creepage Distance for your high-voltage grid.
CLASSIFICATION RESULT
Class I (Light)
Min. Creepage: 16 mm/kV

Standard SPS Classes

Class I (Light)16 mm/kV
Class II (Medium)20 mm/kV
Class III (Heavy)25 mm/kV
Class IV (Very Heavy)31 mm/kV

Insulator Selection Guide

Operating in Class III or Class IV zones? Standard insulator profiles are highly susceptible to flashovers due to salt fog and conductive dust buildup.

The Solution: Specify Aerodynamic/Fog-type porcelain profiles or inherently hydrophobic HTV Silicone Rubber.
