Six, Test principle:

On the surface of the solid insulating material, the required size （2mm × 5mm） between platinum electrodes, - applying a voltage and a time （30s） given height （35mm） drop required volume of conductive liquid droplet （0.1% NH 4CL） to evaluate the solid insulating material surface in wet or contaminated medium electric and combined effects of the anti-leakage performance, measured comparative tracking index （CT1） and the proof tracking index （PT1）.

Seven, test purposes:

Proof tracking test is to simulate the actual use of household products in the live parts of different polarity in the insulating material is deposited on the surface of a conductive material caused by insulation material surface creepage breakdown short circuit and fire hazard testing carried out. Electrical products in use, due to environmental causes dye hollow of a tree surface of insulating material with dirt, moisture and the leakage, thereby inducing the corrosion damage the insulation properties. Tests specified in this standard is an extremely harsh conditions simulated acceleration tests to verify whether the formation of an insulating material signs of leakage, which can distinguish solid insulating materials in a short anti-tracking ability, to ensure that products in certain environmental conditions safe use.

Other additional description:

Tracking （Tracking）: solid insulating material surface and the electrolyte in the electric field under the combined effects of the gradual process of forming a conductive path.

Proof Tracking Index Proof Tracking Index （PTI）: In 30 seconds the material surface to withstand a drop rate of 50 drops of the role of the electrolyte to form a permanent conductive carbon path required voltage to V represents.

Polymeric electrically insulating material has a special destruction phenomenon that polymeric insulating material surface may occur under certain conditions-tracking degradation phenomenon, and can lead to damage to tracking. Tracking damage is present on the surface when the material is wet and dirty, the electric field is large enough, the surface leakage current will be generated, when the current under the action of Joule heat, water is evaporated, the separation film surface with a gap formed （called the drying belt）, the drying belt to instantaneous field strength between the film reaches the discharge field strength which causes discharge, the discharge surface of the heat generated by partial carbonization material, high conductivity of the carbonization product, where the electric field density is concentrated to the carbonization section, causing the repeated discharge, around which produce more carbides, carbonized conductive path is formed, extending in a direction to the electrodes, resulting in a short circuit.

Sample thickness

GB/T4207-2003 requirements, the specimen thickness of not less than 3 mm, as is usually the case that the sample pad under glass or steel, because the test ionization NH4Cl solution will produce a lot of heat, heat the sample must withstand case, if the sample on the sample is too thin will quickly transfer heat away, would not achieve the specimens withstand the effects of ionizing NH4Cl solution. Therefore, the test specimen should be to ensure thickness of not less than 3 mm, the sample should be used the same material superimposed manner, the sample thickness of not less than 3 mm. Meanwhile superimposed sample size should be as consistent.

Distilled or deionized water resistivity

GB/T4207-2003 specified in distilled or deionized water with a prepared solution of NH4Cl, the resistivity of the solution （395 ± 5） Au · cm. However, the standard does not specify distilled or deionized water resistivity. I obtained in the long term test, distilled or deionized water may affect the resistivity of experimental results, the results of the test voltage is reduced. Because distilled or deionized water resistivity is low, it means distilled or deionized water containing negligible like ions, these impurity ions affect dubbed NH4Cl solution NH4 + and Cl-, and even accelerated NH4Cl solution ionized. Distilled or deionized water, the higher the resistivity, distilled or deionized water contains less impurity ions, the impact on the test results is smaller. From the author of a large number of experimental results, distilled or deionized water resistivity of not less than 10 M Europe · cm, thereby controlling distilled or deionized water impurity ions on the test results.

Short-circuit current test set

GB/T4207-2003 provides short-circuit current test before the test should be set to 1 A. Well here there are two possibilities:

（A） different test voltage is only set once short-circuit current;

（2） be set individually for each test voltage short circuit current. For different test voltage is only set once short-circuit current, for example, the test voltage is 200 V, short-circuit current to 1 A, then the test voltage is increased to 300 V, and then verify that the short circuit current, can be found in the current exceeds 1 A. If the test voltage is reduced to 150 V, the validation circuit current, you will find current of less than 1 A. So as to ensure compliance testing standards, adjusted once each test voltage, short-circuit current should be adjusted again.

Droplet size control amount

GB/T4207-2003 predetermined amount of liquid droplets in the size should be controlled at 44 drops / ml to 45 drops / ml. In the experiment, the number of drops can be controlled by a droplet counter, then how to determine the 44 drops to 45 drops is 1 mL it? The author summarizes a simple and effective method. NH4Cl solution, the percentage concentration of 0.1%, NH4Cl amount is small, then the density of the solution can be set to 1 g / mL. The solution was poured into a dropping vessel, a small container with a first weight of the empty container weighed, and the small container in the drip device, to accommodate the droplets. Start the instrument, drop out of NH4Cl solution 44 drops to 45 drops, and then weighed small container weight. Subtract two weights can be drawn after 44 drops to 45 drops of liquid droplets weight. If the weight is 1 g, it shows 44 drops to 45 drops of the solution was 1 ml; if more than 1 g, it shows excessive droplets, droplet volume should be adjusted to delay; if less than 1 g, it shows the amount of droplets too small, the amount of liquid droplets can be adjusted delay. This ensures that the droplet size of the volume compliance.

Clean the electrodes

GB/T4207-2003 states: test response electrode for cleaning. This means that after each do a test, the electrodes should be cleaned, whether it is at the same voltage or different voltages. Cleaning can use detergents, alcohol, etc. can also be used for cleaning, but may not use abrasive cleaners. After cleaning, apply NH4Cl solution was prepared using deionized or distilled water if the test sample combustion occurs, making the platinum electrode melting, then the electrodes should be trimmed. Dressing available when more than 1200 mesh sandpaper lightly polished on the part of the ablation to remove traces of ablation. Polished should be very careful not to change the outline of the electrodes, the electrode should be kept constant angle R of the blade, does not change the cylindrical surface of the electrode edge, the state should remain sharp, but not sharpened.

Six, Test principle:

On the surface of the solid insulating material, the required size （2mm × 5mm） between platinum electrodes, - applying a voltage and a time （30s） given height （35mm） drop required volume of conductive liquid droplet （0.1% NH 4CL） to evaluate the solid insulating material surface in wet or contaminated medium electric and combined effects of the anti-leakage performance, measured comparative tracking index （CT1） and the proof tracking index （PT1）.

Seven, test purposes:

Proof tracking test is to simulate the actual use of household products in the live parts of different polarity in the insulating material is deposited on the surface of a conductive material caused by insulation material surface creepage breakdown short circuit and fire hazard testing carried out. Electrical products in use, due to environmental causes dye hollow of a tree surface of insulating material with dirt, moisture and the leakage, thereby inducing the corrosion damage the insulation properties. Tests specified in this standard is an extremely harsh conditions simulated acceleration tests to verify whether the formation of an insulating material signs of leakage, which can distinguish solid insulating materials in a short anti-tracking ability, to ensure that products in certain environmental conditions safe use.

Other additional description:

Tracking （Tracking）: solid insulating material surface and the electrolyte in the electric field under the combined effects of the gradual process of forming a conductive path.

Proof Tracking Index Proof Tracking Index （PTI）: In 30 seconds the material surface to withstand a drop rate of 50 drops of the role of the electrolyte to form a permanent conductive carbon path required voltage to V represents.

Polymeric electrically insulating material has a special destruction phenomenon that polymeric insulating material surface may occur under certain conditions-tracking degradation phenomenon, and can lead to damage to tracking. Tracking damage is present on the surface when the material is wet and dirty, the electric field is large enough, the surface leakage current will be generated, when the current under the action of Joule heat, water is evaporated, the separation film surface with a gap formed （called the drying belt）, the drying belt to instantaneous field strength between the film reaches the discharge field strength which causes discharge, the discharge surface of the heat generated by partial carbonization material, high conductivity of the carbonization product, where the electric field density is concentrated to the carbonization section, causing the repeated discharge, around which produce more carbides, carbonized conductive path is formed, extending in a direction to the electrodes, resulting in a short circuit.

Sample thickness

GB/T4207-2003 requirements, the specimen thickness of not less than 3 mm, as is usually the case that the sample pad under glass or steel, because the test ionization NH4Cl solution will produce a lot of heat, heat the sample must withstand case, if the sample on the sample is too thin will quickly transfer heat away, would not achieve the specimens withstand the effects of ionizing NH4Cl solution. Therefore, the test specimen should be to ensure thickness of not less than 3 mm, the sample should be used the same material superimposed manner, the sample thickness of not less than 3 mm. Meanwhile superimposed sample size should be as consistent.

Distilled or deionized water resistivity

GB/T4207-2003 specified in distilled or deionized water with a prepared solution of NH4Cl, the resistivity of the solution （395 ± 5） Au · cm. However, the standard does not specify distilled or deionized water resistivity. I obtained in the long term test, distilled or deionized water may affect the resistivity of experimental results, the results of the test voltage is reduced. Because distilled or deionized water resistivity is low, it means distilled or deionized water containing negligible like ions, these impurity ions affect dubbed NH4Cl solution NH4 + and Cl-, and even accelerated NH4Cl solution ionized. Distilled or deionized water, the higher the resistivity, distilled or deionized water contains less impurity ions, the impact on the test results is smaller. From the author of a large number of experimental results, distilled or deionized water resistivity of not less than 10 M Europe · cm, thereby controlling distilled or deionized water impurity ions on the test results.

Short-circuit current test set

GB/T4207-2003 provides short-circuit current test before the test should be set to 1 A. Well here there are two possibilities:

（A） different test voltage is only set once short-circuit current;

（2） be set individually for each test voltage short circuit current. For different test voltage is only set once short-circuit current, for example, the test voltage is 200 V, short-circuit current to 1 A, then the test voltage is increased to 300 V, and then verify that the short circuit current, can be found in the current exceeds 1 A. If the test voltage is reduced to 150 V, the validation circuit current, you will find current of less than 1 A. So as to ensure compliance testing standards, adjusted once each test voltage, short-circuit current should be adjusted again.

Droplet size control amount

GB/T4207-2003 predetermined amount of liquid droplets in the size should be controlled at 44 drops / ml to 45 drops / ml. In the experiment, the number of drops can be controlled by a droplet counter, then how to determine the 44 drops to 45 drops is 1 mL it? The author summarizes a simple and effective method. NH4Cl solution, the percentage concentration of 0.1%, NH4Cl amount is small, then the density of the solution can be set to 1 g / mL. The solution was poured into a dropping vessel, a small container with a first weight of the empty container weighed, and the small container in the drip device, to accommodate the droplets. Start the instrument, drop out of NH4Cl solution 44 drops to 45 drops, and then weighed small container weight. Subtract two weights can be drawn after 44 drops to 45 drops of liquid droplets weight. If the weight is 1 g, it shows 44 drops to 45 drops of the solution was 1 ml; if more than 1 g, it shows excessive droplets, droplet volume should be adjusted to delay; if less than 1 g, it shows the amount of droplets too small, the amount of liquid droplets can be adjusted delay. This ensures that the droplet size of the volume compliance.

Clean the electrodes

GB/T4207-2003 states: test response electrode for cleaning. This means that after each do a test, the electrodes should be cleaned, whether it is at the same voltage or different voltages. Cleaning can use detergents, alcohol, etc. can also be used for cleaning, but may not use abrasive cleaners. After cleaning, apply NH4Cl solution was prepared using deionized or distilled water if the test sample combustion occurs, making the platinum electrode melting, then the electrodes should be trimmed. Dressing available when more than 1200 mesh sandpaper lightly polished on the part of the ablation to remove traces of ablation. Polished should be very careful not to change the outline of the electrodes, the electrode should be kept constant angle R of the blade, does not change the cylindrical surface of the electrode edge, the state should remain sharp, but not sharpened.

Polymeric electrically insulating material has a special destruction phenomenon that polymeric insulating material surface may occur under certain conditions-tracking degradation phenomenon, and can lead to damage to tracking. Tracking damage is present on the surface when the material is wet and dirty, the electric field is large enough, the surface leakage current will be generated, when the current under the action of Joule heat, water is evaporated, the separation film surface with a gap formed （called the drying belt）, the drying belt to instantaneous field strength between the film reaches the discharge field strength which causes discharge, the discharge surface of the heat generated by partial carbonization material, high conductivity of the carbonization product, where the electric field density is concentrated to the carbonization section, causing the repeated discharge, around which produce more carbides, carbonized conductive path is formed, extending in a direction to the electrodes, resulting in a short circuit.

Sample thickness

GB/T4207-2003 requirements, the specimen thickness of not less than 3 mm, as is usually the case that the sample pad under glass or steel, because the test ionization NH4Cl solution will produce a lot of heat, heat the sample must withstand case, if the sample on the sample is too thin will quickly transfer heat away, would not achieve the specimens withstand the effects of ionizing NH4Cl solution. Therefore, the test specimen should be to ensure thickness of not less than 3 mm, the sample should be used the same material superimposed manner, the sample thickness of not less than 3 mm. Meanwhile superimposed sample size should be as consistent.

Distilled or deionized water resistivity

GB/T4207-2003 specified in distilled or deionized water with a prepared solution of NH4Cl, the resistivity of the solution （395 ± 5） Au · cm. However, the standard does not specify distilled or deionized water resistivity. I obtained in the long term test, distilled or deionized water may affect the resistivity of experimental results, the results of the test voltage is reduced. Because distilled or deionized water resistivity is low, it means distilled or deionized water containing negligible like ions, these impurity ions affect dubbed NH4Cl solution NH4 + and Cl-, and even accelerated NH4Cl solution ionized. Distilled or deionized water, the higher the resistivity, distilled or deionized water contains less impurity ions, the impact on the test results is smaller. From the author of a large number of experimental results, distilled or deionized water resistivity of not less than 10 M Europe · cm, thereby controlling distilled or deionized water impurity ions on the test results.

Short-circuit current test set

GB/T4207-2003 provides short-circuit current test before the test should be set to 1 A. Well here there are two possibilities:

（A） different test voltage is only set once short-circuit current;

（2） be set individually for each test voltage short circuit current. For different test voltage is only set once short-circuit current, for example, the test voltage is 200 V, short-circuit current to 1 A, then the test voltage is increased to 300 V, and then verify that the short circuit current, can be found in the current exceeds 1 A. If the test voltage is reduced to 150 V, the validation circuit current, you will find current of less than 1 A. So as to ensure compliance testing standards, adjusted once each test voltage, short-circuit current should be adjusted again.

Droplet size control amount

GB/T4207-2003 predetermined amount of liquid droplets in the size should be controlled at 44 drops / ml to 45 drops / ml. In the experiment, the number of drops can be controlled by a droplet counter, then how to determine the 44 drops to 45 drops is 1 mL it? The author summarizes a simple and effective method. NH4Cl solution, the percentage concentration of 0.1%, NH4Cl amount is small, then the density of the solution can be set to 1 g / mL. The solution was poured into a dropping vessel, a small container with a first weight of the empty container weighed, and the small container in the drip device, to accommodate the droplets. Start the instrument, drop out of NH4Cl solution 44 drops to 45 drops, and then weighed small container weight. Subtract two weights can be drawn after 44 drops to 45 drops of liquid droplets weight. If the weight is 1 g, it shows 44 drops to 45 drops of the solution was 1 ml; if more than 1 g, it shows excessive droplets, droplet volume should be adjusted to delay; if less than 1 g, it shows the amount of droplets too small, the amount of liquid droplets can be adjusted delay. This ensures that the droplet size of the volume compliance.

Clean the electrodes

GB/T4207-2003 states: test response electrode for cleaning. This means that after each do a test, the electrodes should be cleaned, whether it is at the same voltage or different voltages. Cleaning can use detergents, alcohol, etc. can also be used for cleaning, but may not use abrasive cleaners. After cleaning, apply NH4Cl solution was prepared using deionized or distilled water if the test sample combustion occurs, making the platinum electrode melting, then the electrodes should be trimmed. Dressing available when more than 1200 mesh sandpaper lightly polished on the part of the ablation to remove traces of ablation. Polished should be very careful not to change the outline of the electrodes, the electrode should be kept constant angle R of the blade, does not change the cylindrical surface of the electrode edge, the state should remain sharp, but not sharpened.

Six, Test principle:

On the surface of the solid insulating material, the required size （2mm × 5mm） between platinum electrodes, - applying a voltage and a time （30s） given height （35mm） drop required volume of conductive liquid droplet （0.1% NH 4CL） to evaluate the solid insulating material surface in wet or contaminated medium electric and combined effects of the anti-leakage performance, measured comparative tracking index （CT1） and the proof tracking index （PT1）.

Seven, test purposes:

Proof tracking test is to simulate the actual use of household products in the live parts of different polarity in the insulating material is deposited on the surface of a conductive material caused by insulation material surface creepage breakdown short circuit and fire hazard testing carried out. Electrical products in use, due to environmental causes dye hollow of a tree surface of insulating material with dirt, moisture and the leakage, thereby inducing the corrosion damage the insulation properties. Tests specified in this standard is an extremely harsh conditions simulated acceleration tests to verify whether the formation of an insulating material signs of leakage, which can distinguish solid insulating materials in a short anti-tracking ability, to ensure that products in certain environmental conditions safe use.

Other additional description:

Tracking （Tracking）: solid insulating material surface and the electrolyte in the electric field under the combined effects of the gradual process of forming a conductive path.

Proof Tracking Index Proof Tracking Index （PTI）: In 30 seconds the material surface to withstand a drop rate of 50 drops of the role of the electrolyte to form a permanent conductive carbon path required voltage to V represents.

Polymeric electrically insulating material has a special destruction phenomenon that polymeric insulating material surface may occur under certain conditions-tracking degradation phenomenon, and can lead to damage to tracking. Tracking damage is present on the surface when the material is wet and dirty, the electric field is large enough, the surface leakage current will be generated, when the current under the action of Joule heat, water is evaporated, the separation film surface with a gap formed （called the drying belt）, the drying belt to instantaneous field strength between the film reaches the discharge field strength which causes discharge, the discharge surface of the heat generated by partial carbonization material, high conductivity of the carbonization product, where the electric field density is concentrated to the carbonization section, causing the repeated discharge, around which produce more carbides, carbonized conductive path is formed, extending in a direction to the electrodes, resulting in a short circuit.

Sample thickness

GB/T4207-2003 requirements, the specimen thickness of not less than 3 mm, as is usually the case that the sample pad under glass or steel, because the test ionization NH4Cl solution will produce a lot of heat, heat the sample must withstand case, if the sample on the sample is too thin will quickly transfer heat away, would not achieve the specimens withstand the effects of ionizing NH4Cl solution. Therefore, the test specimen should be to ensure thickness of not less than 3 mm, the sample should be used the same material superimposed manner, the sample thickness of not less than 3 mm. Meanwhile superimposed sample size should be as consistent.

Distilled or deionized water resistivity

GB/T4207-2003 specified in distilled or deionized water with a prepared solution of NH4Cl, the resistivity of the solution （395 ± 5） Au · cm. However, the standard does not specify distilled or deionized water resistivity. I obtained in the long term test, distilled or deionized water may affect the resistivity of experimental results, the results of the test voltage is reduced. Because distilled or deionized water resistivity is low, it means distilled or deionized water containing negligible like ions, these impurity ions affect dubbed NH4Cl solution NH4 + and Cl-, and even accelerated NH4Cl solution ionized. Distilled or deionized water, the higher the resistivity, distilled or deionized water contains less impurity ions, the impact on the test results is smaller. From the author of a large number of experimental results, distilled or deionized water resistivity of not less than 10 M Europe · cm, thereby controlling distilled or deionized water impurity ions on the test results.

Short-circuit current test set

GB/T4207-2003 provides short-circuit current test before the test should be set to 1 A. Well here there are two possibilities:

（A） different test voltage is only set once short-circuit current;

（2） be set individually for each test voltage short circuit current. For different test voltage is only set once short-circuit current, for example, the test voltage is 200 V, short-circuit current to 1 A, then the test voltage is increased to 300 V, and then verify that the short circuit current, can be found in the current exceeds 1 A. If the test voltage is reduced to 150 V, the validation circuit current, you will find current of less than 1 A. So as to ensure compliance testing standards, adjusted once each test voltage, short-circuit current should be adjusted again.

Droplet size control amount

GB/T4207-2003 predetermined amount of liquid droplets in the size should be controlled at 44 drops / ml to 45 drops / ml. In the experiment, the number of drops can be controlled by a droplet counter, then how to determine the 44 drops to 45 drops is 1 mL it? The author summarizes a simple and effective method. NH4Cl solution, the percentage concentration of 0.1%, NH4Cl amount is small, then the density of the solution can be set to 1 g / mL. The solution was poured into a dropping vessel, a small container with a first weight of the empty container weighed, and the small container in the drip device, to accommodate the droplets. Start the instrument, drop out of NH4Cl solution 44 drops to 45 drops, and then weighed small container weight. Subtract two weights can be drawn after 44 drops to 45 drops of liquid droplets weight. If the weight is 1 g, it shows 44 drops to 45 drops of the solution was 1 ml; if more than 1 g, it shows excessive droplets, droplet volume should be adjusted to delay; if less than 1 g, it shows the amount of droplets too small, the amount of liquid droplets can be adjusted delay. This ensures that the droplet size of the volume compliance.

Clean the electrodes

GB/T4207-2003 states: test response electrode for cleaning. This means that after each do a test, the electrodes should be cleaned, whether it is at the same voltage or different voltages. Cleaning can use detergents, alcohol, etc. can also be used for cleaning, but may not use abrasive cleaners. After cleaning, apply NH4Cl solution was prepared using deionized or distilled water if the test sample combustion occurs, making the platinum electrode melting, then the electrodes should be trimmed. Dressing available when more than 1200 mesh sandpaper lightly polished on the part of the ablation to remove traces of ablation. Polished should be very careful not to change the outline of the electrodes, the electrode should be kept constant angle R of the blade, does not change the cylindrical surface of the electrode edge, the state should remain sharp, but not sharpened.

Distilled or deionized water, the higher the resistivity, distilled or deionized water contains less impurity ions, the impact on the test results is smaller. From the author of a large number of experimental results, distilled or deionized water resistivity of not less than 10 M Europe · cm, thereby controlling distilled or deionized water impurity ions on the test results.

Short-circuit current test set

GB/T4207-2003 provides short-circuit current test before the test should be set to 1 A. Well here there are two possibilities:

（A） different test voltage is only set once short-circuit current;

（2） be set individually for each test voltage short circuit current. For different test voltage is only set once short-circuit current, for example, the test voltage is 200 V, short-circuit current to 1 A, then the test voltage is increased to 300 V, and then verify that the short circuit current, can be found in the current exceeds 1 A. If the test voltage is reduced to 150 V, the validation circuit current, you will find current of less than 1 A. So as to ensure compliance testing standards, adjusted once each test voltage, short-circuit current should be adjusted again.

Droplet size control amount

GB/T4207-2003 predetermined amount of liquid droplets in the size should be controlled at 44 drops / ml to 45 drops / ml. In the experiment, the number of drops can be controlled by a droplet counter, then how to determine the 44 drops to 45 drops is 1 mL it? The author summarizes a simple and effective method. NH4Cl solution, the percentage concentration of 0.1%, NH4Cl amount is small, then the density of the solution can be set to 1 g / mL. The solution was poured into a dropping vessel, a small container with a first weight of the empty container weighed, and the small container in the drip device, to accommodate the droplets. Start the instrument, drop out of NH4Cl solution 44 drops to 45 drops, and then weighed small container weight. Subtract two weights can be drawn after 44 drops to 45 drops of liquid droplets weight. If the weight is 1 g, it shows 44 drops to 45 drops of the solution was 1 ml; if more than 1 g, it shows excessive droplets, droplet volume should be adjusted to delay; if less than 1 g, it shows the amount of droplets too small, the amount of liquid droplets can be adjusted delay. This ensures that the droplet size of the volume compliance.

Clean the electrodes

GB/T4207-2003 states: test response electrode for cleaning. This means that after each do a test, the electrodes should be cleaned, whether it is at the same voltage or different voltages. Cleaning can use detergents, alcohol, etc. can also be used for cleaning, but may not use abrasive cleaners. After cleaning, apply NH4Cl solution was prepared using deionized or distilled water if the test sample combustion occurs, making the platinum electrode melting, then the electrodes should be trimmed. Dressing available when more than 1200 mesh sandpaper lightly polished on the part of the ablation to remove traces of ablation. Polished should be very careful not to change the outline of the electrodes, the electrode should be kept constant angle R of the blade, does not change the cylindrical surface of the electrode edge, the state should remain sharp, but not sharpened.

Electrical products in use, due to environmental causes dye hollow of a tree surface of insulating material with dirt, moisture and the leakage, thereby inducing the corrosion damage the insulation properties.

Proof Tracking Index Proof Tracking Index （PTI）: In 30 seconds the material surface to withstand a drop rate of 50 drops of the role of the electrolyte to form a permanent conductive carbon path required voltage to V represents.

Polymeric electrically insulating material has a special destruction phenomenon that polymeric insulating material surface may occur under certain conditions-tracking degradation phenomenon, and can lead to damage to tracking. Tracking damage is present on the surface when the material is wet and dirty, the electric field is large enough, the surface leakage current will be generated, when the current under the action of Joule heat, water is evaporated, the separation film surface with a gap formed （called the drying belt）, the drying belt to instantaneous field strength between the film reaches the discharge field strength which causes discharge, the discharge surface of the heat generated by partial carbonization material, high conductivity of the carbonization product, where the electric field density is concentrated to the carbonization section, causing the repeated discharge, around which produce more carbides, carbonized conductive path is formed, extending in a direction to the electrodes, resulting in a short circuit.

Therefore, the test specimen should be to ensure thickness of not less than 3 mm, the sample should be used the same material superimposed manner, the sample thickness of not less than 3 mm. Meanwhile superimposed sample size should be as consistent.

However, the standard does not specify distilled or deionized water resistivity. I obtained in the long term test, distilled or deionized water may affect the resistivity of experimental results, the results of the test voltage is reduced. Because distilled or deionized water resistivity is low, it means distilled or deionized water containing negligible like ions, these impurity ions affect dubbed NH4Cl solution NH4 + and Cl-, and even accelerated NH4Cl solution ionized. Distilled or deionized water, the higher the resistivity, distilled or deionized water contains less impurity ions, the impact on the test results is smaller.

If the test voltage is reduced to 150 V, the validation circuit current, you will find current of less than 1 A. So as to ensure compliance testing standards, adjusted once each test voltage, short-circuit current should be adjusted again.

If the weight is 1 g, it shows 44 drops to 45 drops of the solution was 1 ml; if more than 1 g, it shows excessive droplets, droplet volume should be adjusted to delay; if less than 1 g, it shows the amount of droplets too small, the amount of liquid droplets can be adjusted delay. This ensures that the droplet size of the volume compliance.

Six, Test principle:

On the surface of the solid insulating material, the required size （2mm × 5mm） between platinum electrodes, - applying a voltage and a time （30s） given height （35mm） drop required volume of conductive liquid droplet （0.1% NH 4CL） to evaluate the solid insulating material surface in wet or contaminated medium electric and combined effects of the anti-leakage performance, measured comparative tracking index （CT1） and the proof tracking index （PT1）.

Seven, test purposes:

Proof tracking test is to simulate the actual use of household products in the live parts of different polarity in the insulating material is deposited on the surface of a conductive material caused by insulation material surface creepage breakdown short circuit and fire hazard testing carried out. Electrical products in use, due to environmental causes dye hollow of a tree surface of insulating material with dirt, moisture and the leakage, thereby inducing the corrosion damage the insulation properties. Tests specified in this standard is an extremely harsh conditions simulated acceleration tests to verify whether the formation of an insulating material signs of leakage, which can distinguish solid insulating materials in a short anti-tracking ability, to ensure that products in certain environmental conditions safe use.

Other additional description:

Tracking （Tracking）: solid insulating material surface and the electrolyte in the electric field under the combined effects of the gradual process of forming a conductive path.

Proof Tracking Index Proof Tracking Index （PTI）: In 30 seconds the material surface to withstand a drop rate of 50 drops of the role of the electrolyte to form a permanent conductive carbon path required voltage to V represents.

Polymeric electrically insulating material has a special destruction phenomenon that polymeric insulating material surface may occur under certain conditions-tracking degradation phenomenon, and can lead to damage to tracking. Tracking damage is present on the surface when the material is wet and dirty, the electric field is large enough, the surface leakage current will be generated, when the current under the action of Joule heat, water is evaporated, the separation film surface with a gap formed （called the drying belt）, the drying belt to instantaneous field strength between the film reaches the discharge field strength which causes discharge, the discharge surface of the heat generated by partial carbonization material, high conductivity of the carbonization product, where the electric field density is concentrated to the carbonization section, causing the repeated discharge, around which produce more carbides, carbonized conductive path is formed, extending in a direction to the electrodes, resulting in a short circuit.

Sample thickness

GB/T4207-2003 requirements, the specimen thickness of not less than 3 mm, as is usually the case that the sample pad under glass or steel, because the test ionization NH4Cl solution will produce a lot of heat, heat the sample must withstand case, if the sample on the sample is too thin will quickly transfer heat away, would not achieve the specimens withstand the effects of ionizing NH4Cl solution. Therefore, the test specimen should be to ensure thickness of not less than 3 mm, the sample should be used the same material superimposed manner, the sample thickness of not less than 3 mm. Meanwhile superimposed sample size should be as consistent.

Distilled or deionized water resistivity

GB/T4207-2003 specified in distilled or deionized water with a prepared solution of NH4Cl, the resistivity of the solution （395 ± 5） Au · cm. However, the standard does not specify distilled or deionized water resistivity. I obtained in the long term test, distilled or deionized water may affect the resistivity of experimental results, the results of the test voltage is reduced. Because distilled or deionized water resistivity is low, it means distilled or deionized water containing negligible like ions, these impurity ions affect dubbed NH4Cl solution NH4 + and Cl-, and even accelerated NH4Cl solution ionized. Distilled or deionized water, the higher the resistivity, distilled or deionized water contains less impurity ions, the impact on the test results is smaller. From the author of a large number of experimental results, distilled or deionized water resistivity of not less than 10 M Europe · cm, thereby controlling distilled or deionized water impurity ions on the test results.

Short-circuit current test set

GB/T4207-2003 provides short-circuit current test before the test should be set to 1 A. Well here there are two possibilities:

（A） different test voltage is only set once short-circuit current;

（2） be set individually for each test voltage short circuit current. For different test voltage is only set once short-circuit current, for example, the test voltage is 200 V, short-circuit current to 1 A, then the test voltage is increased to 300 V, and then verify that the short circuit current, can be found in the current exceeds 1 A. If the test voltage is reduced to 150 V, the validation circuit current, you will find current of less than 1 A. So as to ensure compliance testing standards, adjusted once each test voltage, short-circuit current should be adjusted again.

Droplet size control amount

GB/T4207-2003 predetermined amount of liquid droplets in the size should be controlled at 44 drops / ml to 45 drops / ml. In the experiment, the number of drops can be controlled by a droplet counter, then how to determine the 44 drops to 45 drops is 1 mL it? The author summarizes a simple and effective method. NH4Cl solution, the percentage concentration of 0.1%, NH4Cl amount is small, then the density of the solution can be set to 1 g / mL. The solution was poured into a dropping vessel, a small container with a first weight of the empty container weighed, and the small container in the drip device, to accommodate the droplets. Start the instrument, drop out of NH4Cl solution 44 drops to 45 drops, and then weighed small container weight. Subtract two weights can be drawn after 44 drops to 45 drops of liquid droplets weight. If the weight is 1 g, it shows 44 drops to 45 drops of the solution was 1 ml; if more than 1 g, it shows excessive droplets, droplet volume should be adjusted to delay; if less than 1 g, it shows the amount of droplets too small, the amount of liquid droplets can be adjusted delay. This ensures that the droplet size of the volume compliance.

Clean the electrodes

GB/T4207-2003 states: test response electrode for cleaning. This means that after each do a test, the electrodes should be cleaned, whether it is at the same voltage or different voltages. Cleaning can use detergents, alcohol, etc. can also be used for cleaning, but may not use abrasive cleaners. After cleaning, apply NH4Cl solution was prepared using deionized or distilled water if the test sample combustion occurs, making the platinum electrode melting, then the electrodes should be trimmed. Dressing available when more than 1200 mesh sandpaper lightly polished on the part of the ablation to remove traces of ablation. Polished should be very careful not to change the outline of the electrodes, the electrode should be kept constant angle R of the blade, does not change the cylindrical surface of the electrode edge, the state should remain sharp, but not sharpened.

Six, Test principle:

On the surface of the solid insulating material, the required size （2mm × 5mm） between platinum electrodes, - applying a voltage and a time （30s） given height （35mm） drop required volume of conductive liquid droplet （0.1% NH 4CL） to evaluate the solid insulating material surface in wet or contaminated medium electric and combined effects of the anti-leakage performance, measured comparative tracking index （CT1） and the proof tracking index （PT1）.

Seven, test purposes:

Proof tracking test is to simulate the actual use of household products in the live parts of different polarity in the insulating material is deposited on the surface of a conductive material caused by insulation material surface creepage breakdown short circuit and fire hazard testing carried out. Electrical products in use, due to environmental causes dye hollow of a tree surface of insulating material with dirt, moisture and the leakage, thereby inducing the corrosion damage the insulation properties. Tests specified in this standard is an extremely harsh conditions simulated acceleration tests to verify whether the formation of an insulating material signs of leakage, which can distinguish solid insulating materials in a short anti-tracking ability, to ensure that products in certain environmental conditions safe use.

Other additional description:

Tracking （Tracking）: solid insulating material surface and the electrolyte in the electric field under the combined effects of the gradual process of forming a conductive path.

Proof Tracking Index Proof Tracking Index （PTI）: In 30 seconds the material surface to withstand a drop rate of 50 drops of the role of the electrolyte to form a permanent conductive carbon path required voltage to V represents.

Polymeric electrically insulating material has a special destruction phenomenon that polymeric insulating material surface may occur under certain conditions-tracking degradation phenomenon, and can lead to damage to tracking. Tracking damage is present on the surface when the material is wet and dirty, the electric field is large enough, the surface leakage current will be generated, when the current under the action of Joule heat, water is evaporated, the separation film surface with a gap formed （called the drying belt）, the drying belt to instantaneous field strength between the film reaches the discharge field strength which causes discharge, the discharge surface of the heat generated by partial carbonization material, high conductivity of the carbonization product, where the electric field density is concentrated to the carbonization section, causing the repeated discharge, around which produce more carbides, carbonized conductive path is formed, extending in a direction to the electrodes, resulting in a short circuit.

Sample thickness

GB/T4207-2003 requirements, the specimen thickness of not less than 3 mm, as is usually the case that the sample pad under glass or steel, because the test ionization NH4Cl solution will produce a lot of heat, heat the sample must withstand case, if the sample on the sample is too thin will quickly transfer heat away, would not achieve the specimens withstand the effects of ionizing NH4Cl solution. Therefore, the test specimen should be to ensure thickness of not less than 3 mm, the sample should be used the same material superimposed manner, the sample thickness of not less than 3 mm. Meanwhile superimposed sample size should be as consistent.

Distilled or deionized water resistivity

GB/T4207-2003 specified in distilled or deionized water with a prepared solution of NH4Cl, the resistivity of the solution （395 ± 5） Au · cm. However, the standard does not specify distilled or deionized water resistivity. I obtained in the long term test, distilled or deionized water may affect the resistivity of experimental results, the results of the test voltage is reduced. Because distilled or deionized water resistivity is low, it means distilled or deionized water containing negligible like ions, these impurity ions affect dubbed NH4Cl solution NH4 + and Cl-, and even accelerated NH4Cl solution ionized. Distilled or deionized water, the higher the resistivity, distilled or deionized water contains less impurity ions, the impact on the test results is smaller. From the author of a large number of experimental results, distilled or deionized water resistivity of not less than 10 M Europe · cm, thereby controlling distilled or deionized water impurity ions on the test results.

Short-circuit current test set

GB/T4207-2003 provides short-circuit current test before the test should be set to 1 A. Well here there are two possibilities:

（A） different test voltage is only set once short-circuit current;

（2） be set individually for each test voltage short circuit current. For different test voltage is only set once short-circuit current, for example, the test voltage is 200 V, short-circuit current to 1 A, then the test voltage is increased to 300 V, and then verify that the short circuit current, can be found in the current exceeds 1 A. If the test voltage is reduced to 150 V, the validation circuit current, you will find current of less than 1 A. So as to ensure compliance testing standards, adjusted once each test voltage, short-circuit current should be adjusted again.

Droplet size control amount

GB/T4207-2003 predetermined amount of liquid droplets in the size should be controlled at 44 drops / ml to 45 drops / ml. In the experiment, the number of drops can be controlled by a droplet counter, then how to determine the 44 drops to 45 drops is 1 mL it? The author summarizes a simple and effective method. NH4Cl solution, the percentage concentration of 0.1%, NH4Cl amount is small, then the density of the solution can be set to 1 g / mL. The solution was poured into a dropping vessel, a small container with a first weight of the empty container weighed, and the small container in the drip device, to accommodate the droplets. Start the instrument, drop out of NH4Cl solution 44 drops to 45 drops, and then weighed small container weight. Subtract two weights can be drawn after 44 drops to 45 drops of liquid droplets weight. If the weight is 1 g, it shows 44 drops to 45 drops of the solution was 1 ml; if more than 1 g, it shows excessive droplets, droplet volume should be adjusted to delay; if less than 1 g, it shows the amount of droplets too small, the amount of liquid droplets can be adjusted delay. This ensures that the droplet size of the volume compliance.

Clean the electrodes

GB/T4207-2003 states: test response electrode for cleaning. This means that after each do a test, the electrodes should be cleaned, whether it is at the same voltage or different voltages. Cleaning can use detergents, alcohol, etc. can also be used for cleaning, but may not use abrasive cleaners. After cleaning, apply NH4Cl solution was prepared using deionized or distilled water if the test sample combustion occurs, making the platinum electrode melting, then the electrodes should be trimmed. Dressing available when more than 1200 mesh sandpaper lightly polished on the part of the ablation to remove traces of ablation. Polished should be very careful not to change the outline of the electrodes, the electrode should be kept constant angle R of the blade, does not change the cylindrical surface of the electrode edge, the state should remain sharp, but not sharpened.

Six, Test principle:

On the surface of the solid insulating material, the required size （2mm × 5mm） between platinum electrodes, - applying a voltage and a time （30s） given height （35mm） drop required volume of conductive liquid droplet （0.1% NH 4CL） to evaluate the solid insulating material surface in wet or contaminated medium electric and combined effects of the anti-leakage performance, measured comparative tracking index （CT1） and the proof tracking index （PT1）.

Seven, test purposes:

Proof tracking test is to simulate the actual use of household products in the live parts of different polarity in the insulating material is deposited on the surface of a conductive material caused by insulation material surface creepage breakdown short circuit and fire hazard testing carried out. Electrical products in use, due to environmental causes dye hollow of a tree surface of insulating material with dirt, moisture and the leakage, thereby inducing the corrosion damage the insulation properties. Tests specified in this standard is an extremely harsh conditions simulated acceleration tests to verify whether the formation of an insulating material signs of leakage, which can distinguish solid insulating materials in a short anti-tracking ability, to ensure that products in certain environmental conditions safe use.

Other additional description:

Tracking （Tracking）: solid insulating material surface and the electrolyte in the electric field under the combined effects of the gradual process of forming a conductive path.

Proof Tracking Index Proof Tracking Index （PTI）: In 30 seconds the material surface to withstand a drop rate of 50 drops of the role of the electrolyte to form a permanent conductive carbon path required voltage to V represents.

Polymeric electrically insulating material has a special destruction phenomenon that polymeric insulating material surface may occur under certain conditions-tracking degradation phenomenon, and can lead to damage to tracking. Tracking damage is present on the surface when the material is wet and dirty, the electric field is large enough, the surface leakage current will be generated, when the current under the action of Joule heat, water is evaporated, the separation film surface with a gap formed （called the drying belt）, the drying belt to instantaneous field strength between the film reaches the discharge field strength which causes discharge, the discharge surface of the heat generated by partial carbonization material, high conductivity of the carbonization product, where the electric field density is concentrated to the carbonization section, causing the repeated discharge, around which produce more carbides, carbonized conductive path is formed, extending in a direction to the electrodes, resulting in a short circuit.

Sample thickness

GB/T4207-2003 requirements, the specimen thickness of not less than 3 mm, as is usually the case that the sample pad under glass or steel, because the test ionization NH4Cl solution will produce a lot of heat, heat the sample must withstand case, if the sample on the sample is too thin will quickly transfer heat away, would not achieve the specimens withstand the effects of ionizing NH4Cl solution. Therefore, the test specimen should be to ensure thickness of not less than 3 mm, the sample should be used the same material superimposed manner, the sample thickness of not less than 3 mm. Meanwhile superimposed sample size should be as consistent.

Distilled or deionized water resistivity

GB/T4207-2003 specified in distilled or deionized water with a prepared solution of NH4Cl, the resistivity of the solution （395 ± 5） Au · cm. However, the standard does not specify distilled or deionized water resistivity. I obtained in the long term test, distilled or deionized water may affect the resistivity of experimental results, the results of the test voltage is reduced. Because distilled or deionized water resistivity is low, it means distilled or deionized water containing negligible like ions, these impurity ions affect dubbed NH4Cl solution NH4 + and Cl-, and even accelerated NH4Cl solution ionized. Distilled or deionized water, the higher the resistivity, distilled or deionized water contains less impurity ions, the impact on the test results is smaller. From the author of a large number of experimental results, distilled or deionized water resistivity of not less than 10 M Europe · cm, thereby controlling distilled or deionized water impurity ions on the test results.

Short-circuit current test set

GB/T4207-2003 provides short-circuit current test before the test should be set to 1 A. Well here there are two possibilities:

（A） different test voltage is only set once short-circuit current;

（2） be set individually for each test voltage short circuit current. For different test voltage is only set once short-circuit current, for example, the test voltage is 200 V, short-circuit current to 1 A, then the test voltage is increased to 300 V, and then verify that the short circuit current, can be found in the current exceeds 1 A. If the test voltage is reduced to 150 V, the validation circuit current, you will find current of less than 1 A. So as to ensure compliance testing standards, adjusted once each test voltage, short-circuit current should be adjusted again.

Droplet size control amount

GB/T4207-2003 predetermined amount of liquid droplets in the size should be controlled at 44 drops / ml to 45 drops / ml. In the experiment, the number of drops can be controlled by a droplet counter, then how to determine the 44 drops to 45 drops is 1 mL it? The author summarizes a simple and effective method. NH4Cl solution, the percentage concentration of 0.1%, NH4Cl amount is small, then the density of the solution can be set to 1 g / mL. The solution was poured into a dropping vessel, a small container with a first weight of the empty container weighed, and the small container in the drip device, to accommodate the droplets. Start the instrument, drop out of NH4Cl solution 44 drops to 45 drops, and then weighed small container weight. Subtract two weights can be drawn after 44 drops to 45 drops of liquid droplets weight. If the weight is 1 g, it shows 44 drops to 45 drops of the solution was 1 ml; if more than 1 g, it shows excessive droplets, droplet volume should be adjusted to delay; if less than 1 g, it shows the amount of droplets too small, the amount of liquid droplets can be adjusted delay. This ensures that the droplet size of the volume compliance.

Clean the electrodes

GB/T4207-2003 states: test response electrode for cleaning. This means that after each do a test, the electrodes should be cleaned, whether it is at the same voltage or different voltages. Cleaning can use detergents, alcohol, etc. can also be used for cleaning, but may not use abrasive cleaners. After cleaning, apply NH4Cl solution was prepared using deionized or distilled water if the test sample combustion occurs, making the platinum electrode melting, then the electrodes should be trimmed. Dressing available when more than 1200 mesh sandpaper lightly polished on the part of the ablation to remove traces of ablation. Polished should be very careful not to change the outline of the electrodes, the electrode should be kept constant angle R of the blade, does not change the cylindrical surface of the electrode edge, the state should remain sharp, but not sharpened.

Six, Test principle:

On the surface of the solid insulating material, the required size （2mm × 5mm） between platinum electrodes, - applying a voltage and a time （30s） given height （35mm） drop required volume of conductive liquid droplet （0.1% NH 4CL） to evaluate the solid insulating material surface in wet or contaminated medium electric and combined effects of the anti-leakage performance, measured comparative tracking index （CT1） and the proof tracking index （PT1）.

Seven, test purposes:

Proof tracking test is to simulate the actual use of household products in the live parts of different polarity in the insulating material is deposited on the surface of a conductive material caused by insulation material surface creepage breakdown short circuit and fire hazard testing carried out. Electrical products in use, due to environmental causes dye hollow of a tree surface of insulating material with dirt, moisture and the leakage, thereby inducing the corrosion damage the insulation properties. Tests specified in this standard is an extremely harsh conditions simulated acceleration tests to verify whether the formation of an insulating material signs of leakage, which can distinguish solid insulating materials in a short anti-tracking ability, to ensure that products in certain environmental conditions safe use.

Other additional description:

Tracking （Tracking）: solid insulating material surface and the electrolyte in the electric field under the combined effects of the gradual process of forming a conductive path.

Proof Tracking Index Proof Tracking Index （PTI）: In 30 seconds the material surface to withstand a drop rate of 50 drops of the role of the electrolyte to form a permanent conductive carbon path required voltage to V represents.

Polymeric electrically insulating material has a special destruction phenomenon that polymeric insulating material surface may occur under certain conditions-tracking degradation phenomenon, and can lead to damage to tracking. Tracking damage is present on the surface when the material is wet and dirty, the electric field is large enough, the surface leakage current will be generated, when the current under the action of Joule heat, water is evaporated, the separation film surface with a gap formed （called the drying belt）, the drying belt to instantaneous field strength between the film reaches the discharge field strength which causes discharge, the discharge surface of the heat generated by partial carbonization material, high conductivity of the carbonization product, where the electric field density is concentrated to the carbonization section, causing the repeated discharge, around which produce more carbides, carbonized conductive path is formed, extending in a direction to the electrodes, resulting in a short circuit.

Sample thickness

GB/T4207-2003 requirements, the specimen thickness of not less than 3 mm, as is usually the case that the sample pad under glass or steel, because the test ionization NH4Cl solution will produce a lot of heat, heat the sample must withstand case, if the sample on the sample is too thin will quickly transfer heat away, would not achieve the specimens withstand the effects of ionizing NH4Cl solution. Therefore, the test specimen should be to ensure thickness of not less than 3 mm, the sample should be used the same material superimposed manner, the sample thickness of not less than 3 mm. Meanwhile superimposed sample size should be as consistent.

Distilled or deionized water resistivity

GB/T4207-2003 specified in distilled or deionized water with a prepared solution of NH4Cl, the resistivity of the solution （395 ± 5） Au · cm. However, the standard does not specify distilled or deionized water resistivity. I obtained in the long term test, distilled or deionized water may affect the resistivity of experimental results, the results of the test voltage is reduced. Because distilled or deionized water resistivity is low, it means distilled or deionized water containing negligible like ions, these impurity ions affect dubbed NH4Cl solution NH4 + and Cl-, and even accelerated NH4Cl solution ionized. Distilled or deionized water, the higher the resistivity, distilled or deionized water contains less impurity ions, the impact on the test results is smaller. From the author of a large number of experimental results, distilled or deionized water resistivity of not less than 10 M Europe · cm, thereby controlling distilled or deionized water impurity ions on the test results.

Short-circuit current test set

GB/T4207-2003 provides short-circuit current test before the test should be set to 1 A. Well here there are two possibilities:

（A） different test voltage is only set once short-circuit current;

（2） be set individually for each test voltage short circuit current. For different test voltage is only set once short-circuit current, for example, the test voltage is 200 V, short-circuit current to 1 A, then the test voltage is increased to 300 V, and then verify that the short circuit current, can be found in the current exceeds 1 A. If the test voltage is reduced to 150 V, the validation circuit current, you will find current of less than 1 A. So as to ensure compliance testing standards, adjusted once each test voltage, short-circuit current should be adjusted again.

Droplet size control amount

GB/T4207-2003 predetermined amount of liquid droplets in the size should be controlled at 44 drops / ml to 45 drops / ml. In the experiment, the number of drops can be controlled by a droplet counter, then how to determine the 44 drops to 45 drops is 1 mL it? The author summarizes a simple and effective method. NH4Cl solution, the percentage concentration of 0.1%, NH4Cl amount is small, then the density of the solution can be set to 1 g / mL. The solution was poured into a dropping vessel, a small container with a first weight of the empty container weighed, and the small container in the drip device, to accommodate the droplets. Start the instrument, drop out of NH4Cl solution 44 drops to 45 drops, and then weighed small container weight. Subtract two weights can be drawn after 44 drops to 45 drops of liquid droplets weight. If the weight is 1 g, it shows 44 drops to 45 drops of the solution was 1 ml; if more than 1 g, it shows excessive droplets, droplet volume should be adjusted to delay; if less than 1 g, it shows the amount of droplets too small, the amount of liquid droplets can be adjusted delay. This ensures that the droplet size of the volume compliance.

Clean the electrodes

GB/T4207-2003 states: test response electrode for cleaning. This means that after each do a test, the electrodes should be cleaned, whether it is at the same voltage or different voltages. Cleaning can use detergents, alcohol, etc. can also be used for cleaning, but may not use abrasive cleaners. After cleaning, apply NH4Cl solution was prepared using deionized or distilled water if the test sample combustion occurs, making the platinum electrode melting, then the electrodes should be trimmed. Dressing available when more than 1200 mesh sandpaper lightly polished on the part of the ablation to remove traces of ablation. Polished should be very careful not to change the outline of the electrodes, the electrode should be kept constant angle R of the blade, does not change the cylindrical surface of the electrode edge, the state should remain sharp, but not sharpened.

Tracking damage is present on the surface when the material is wet and dirty, the electric field is large enough, the surface leakage current will be generated, when the current under the action of Joule heat, water is evaporated, the separation film surface with a gap formed （called the drying belt）, the drying belt to instantaneous field strength between the film reaches the discharge field strength which causes discharge, the discharge surface of the heat generated by partial carbonization material, high conductivity of the carbonization product, where the electric field density is concentrated to the carbonization section, causing the repeated discharge, around which produce more carbides, carbonized conductive path is formed, extending in a direction to the electrodes, resulting in a short circuit.

Sample thickness

GB/T4207-2003 requirements, the specimen thickness of not less than 3 mm, as is usually the case that the sample pad under glass or steel, because the test ionization NH4Cl solution will produce a lot of heat, heat the sample must withstand case, if the sample on the sample is too thin will quickly transfer heat away, would not achieve the specimens withstand the effects of ionizing NH4Cl solution. Therefore, the test specimen should be to ensure thickness of not less than 3 mm, the sample should be used the same material superimposed manner, the sample thickness of not less than 3 mm. Meanwhile superimposed sample size should be as consistent.

Distilled or deionized water resistivity

GB/T4207-2003 specified in distilled or deionized water with a prepared solution of NH4Cl, the resistivity of the solution （395 ± 5） Au · cm. However, the standard does not specify distilled or deionized water resistivity. I obtained in the long term test, distilled or deionized water may affect the resistivity of experimental results, the results of the test voltage is reduced. Because distilled or deionized water resistivity is low, it means distilled or deionized water containing negligible like ions, these impurity ions affect dubbed NH4Cl solution NH4 + and Cl-, and even accelerated NH4Cl solution ionized. Distilled or deionized water, the higher the resistivity, distilled or deionized water contains less impurity ions, the impact on the test results is smaller. From the author of a large number of experimental results, distilled or deionized water resistivity of not less than 10 M Europe · cm, thereby controlling distilled or deionized water impurity ions on the test results.

Short-circuit current test set

GB/T4207-2003 provides short-circuit current test before the test should be set to 1 A. Well here there are two possibilities:

（A） different test voltage is only set once short-circuit current;

（2） be set individually for each test voltage short circuit current. For different test voltage is only set once short-circuit current, for example, the test voltage is 200 V, short-circuit current to 1 A, then the test voltage is increased to 300 V, and then verify that the short circuit current, can be found in the current exceeds 1 A. If the test voltage is reduced to 150 V, the validation circuit current, you will find current of less than 1 A. So as to ensure compliance testing standards, adjusted once each test voltage, short-circuit current should be adjusted again.

Droplet size control amount

GB/T4207-2003 predetermined amount of liquid droplets in the size should be controlled at 44 drops / ml to 45 drops / ml. In the experiment, the number of drops can be controlled by a droplet counter, then how to determine the 44 drops to 45 drops is 1 mL it? The author summarizes a simple and effective method. NH4Cl solution, the percentage concentration of 0.1%, NH4Cl amount is small, then the density of the solution can be set to 1 g / mL. The solution was poured into a dropping vessel, a small container with a first weight of the empty container weighed, and the small container in the drip device, to accommodate the droplets. Start the instrument, drop out of NH4Cl solution 44 drops to 45 drops, and then weighed small container weight. Subtract two weights can be drawn after 44 drops to 45 drops of liquid droplets weight. If the weight is 1 g, it shows 44 drops to 45 drops of the solution was 1 ml; if more than 1 g, it shows excessive droplets, droplet volume should be adjusted to delay; if less than 1 g, it shows the amount of droplets too small, the amount of liquid droplets can be adjusted delay. This ensures that the droplet size of the volume compliance.

Clean the electrodes

GB/T4207-2003 states: test response electrode for cleaning. This means that after each do a test, the electrodes should be cleaned, whether it is at the same voltage or different voltages. Cleaning can use detergents, alcohol, etc. can also be used for cleaning, but may not use abrasive cleaners. After cleaning, apply NH4Cl solution was prepared using deionized or distilled water if the test sample combustion occurs, making the platinum electrode melting, then the electrodes should be trimmed. Dressing available when more than 1200 mesh sandpaper lightly polished on the part of the ablation to remove traces of ablation. Polished should be very careful not to change the outline of the electrodes, the electrode should be kept constant angle R of the blade, does not change the cylindrical surface of the electrode edge, the state should remain sharp, but not sharpened.

Six, Test principle:

On the surface of the solid insulating material, the required size （2mm × 5mm） between platinum electrodes, - applying a voltage and a time （30s） given height （35mm） drop required volume of conductive liquid droplet （0.1% NH 4CL） to evaluate the solid insulating material surface in wet or contaminated medium electric and combined effects of the anti-leakage performance, measured comparative tracking index （CT1） and the proof tracking index （PT1）.

Seven, test purposes:

Proof tracking test is to simulate the actual use of household products in the live parts of different polarity in the insulating material is deposited on the surface of a conductive material caused by insulation material surface creepage breakdown short circuit and fire hazard testing carried out. Electrical products in use, due to environmental causes dye hollow of a tree surface of insulating material with dirt, moisture and the leakage, thereby inducing the corrosion damage the insulation properties. Tests specified in this standard is an extremely harsh conditions simulated acceleration tests to verify whether the formation of an insulating material signs of leakage, which can distinguish solid insulating materials in a short anti-tracking ability, to ensure that products in certain environmental conditions safe use.

Other additional description:

Tracking （Tracking）: solid insulating material surface and the electrolyte in the electric field under the combined effects of the gradual process of forming a conductive path.

Proof Tracking Index Proof Tracking Index （PTI）: In 30 seconds the material surface to withstand a drop rate of 50 drops of the role of the electrolyte to form a permanent conductive carbon path required voltage to V represents.

Polymeric electrically insulating material has a special destruction phenomenon that polymeric insulating material surface may occur under certain conditions-tracking degradation phenomenon, and can lead to damage to tracking. Tracking damage is present on the surface when the material is wet and dirty, the electric field is large enough, the surface leakage current will be generated, when the current under the action of Joule heat, water is evaporated, the separation film surface with a gap formed （called the drying belt）, the drying belt to instantaneous field strength between the film reaches the discharge field strength which causes discharge, the discharge surface of the heat generated by partial carbonization material, high conductivity of the carbonization product, where the electric field density is concentrated to the carbonization section, causing the repeated discharge, around which produce more carbides, carbonized conductive path is formed, extending in a direction to the electrodes, resulting in a short circuit.

Sample thickness

GB/T4207-2003 requirements, the specimen thickness of not less than 3 mm, as is usually the case that the sample pad under glass or steel, because the test ionization NH4Cl solution will produce a lot of heat, heat the sample must withstand case, if the sample on the sample is too thin will quickly transfer heat away, would not achieve the specimens withstand the effects of ionizing NH4Cl solution. Therefore, the test specimen should be to ensure thickness of not less than 3 mm, the sample should be used the same material superimposed manner, the sample thickness of not less than 3 mm. Meanwhile superimposed sample size should be as consistent.

Distilled or deionized water resistivity

GB/T4207-2003 specified in distilled or deionized water with a prepared solution of NH4Cl, the resistivity of the solution （395 ± 5） Au · cm. However, the standard does not specify distilled or deionized water resistivity. I obtained in the long term test, distilled or deionized water may affect the resistivity of experimental results, the results of the test voltage is reduced. Because distilled or deionized water resistivity is low, it means distilled or deionized water containing negligible like ions, these impurity ions affect dubbed NH4Cl solution NH4 + and Cl-, and even accelerated NH4Cl solution ionized. Distilled or deionized water, the higher the resistivity, distilled or deionized water contains less impurity ions, the impact on the test results is smaller. From the author of a large number of experimental results, distilled or deionized water resistivity of not less than 10 M Europe · cm, thereby controlling distilled or deionized water impurity ions on the test results.

Short-circuit current test set

GB/T4207-2003 provides short-circuit current test before the test should be set to 1 A. Well here there are two possibilities:

（A） different test voltage is only set once short-circuit current;

（2） be set individually for each test voltage short circuit current. For different test voltage is only set once short-circuit current, for example, the test voltage is 200 V, short-circuit current to 1 A, then the test voltage is increased to 300 V, and then verify that the short circuit current, can be found in the current exceeds 1 A. If the test voltage is reduced to 150 V, the validation circuit current, you will find current of less than 1 A. So as to ensure compliance testing standards, adjusted once each test voltage, short-circuit current should be adjusted again.

Droplet size control amount

GB/T4207-2003 predetermined amount of liquid droplets in the size should be controlled at 44 drops / ml to 45 drops / ml. In the experiment, the number of drops can be controlled by a droplet counter, then how to determine the 44 drops to 45 drops is 1 mL it? The author summarizes a simple and effective method. NH4Cl solution, the percentage concentration of 0.1%, NH4Cl amount is small, then the density of the solution can be set to 1 g / mL. The solution was poured into a dropping vessel, a small container with a first weight of the empty container weighed, and the small container in the drip device, to accommodate the droplets. Start the instrument, drop out of NH4Cl solution 44 drops to 45 drops, and then weighed small container weight. Subtract two weights can be drawn after 44 drops to 45 drops of liquid droplets weight. If the weight is 1 g, it shows 44 drops to 45 drops of the solution was 1 ml; if more than 1 g, it shows excessive droplets, droplet volume should be adjusted to delay; if less than 1 g, it shows the amount of droplets too small, the amount of liquid droplets can be adjusted delay. This ensures that the droplet size of the volume compliance.

Clean the electrodes

GB/T4207-2003 states: test response electrode for cleaning. This means that after each do a test, the electrodes should be cleaned, whether it is at the same voltage or different voltages. Cleaning can use detergents, alcohol, etc. can also be used for cleaning, but may not use abrasive cleaners. After cleaning, apply NH4Cl solution was prepared using deionized or distilled water if the test sample combustion occurs, making the platinum electrode melting, then the electrodes should be trimmed. Dressing available when more than 1200 mesh sandpaper lightly polished on the part of the ablation to remove traces of ablation. Polished should be very careful not to change the outline of the electrodes, the electrode should be kept constant angle R of the blade, does not change the cylindrical surface of the electrode edge, the state should remain sharp, but not sharpened.

Six, Test principle:

On the surface of the solid insulating material, the required size （2mm × 5mm） between platinum electrodes, - applying a voltage and a time （30s） given height （35mm） drop required volume of conductive liquid droplet （0.1% NH 4CL） to evaluate the solid insulating material surface in wet or contaminated medium electric and combined effects of the anti-leakage performance, measured comparative tracking index （CT1） and the proof tracking index （PT1）.

Seven, test purposes:

Proof tracking test is to simulate the actual use of household products in the live parts of different polarity in the insulating material is deposited on the surface of a conductive material caused by insulation material surface creepage breakdown short circuit and fire hazard testing carried out. Electrical products in use, due to environmental causes dye hollow of a tree surface of insulating material with dirt, moisture and the leakage, thereby inducing the corrosion damage the insulation properties. Tests specified in this standard is an extremely harsh conditions simulated acceleration tests to verify whether the formation of an insulating material signs of leakage, which can distinguish solid insulating materials in a short anti-tracking ability, to ensure that products in certain environmental conditions safe use.

Other additional description:

Tracking （Tracking）: solid insulating material surface and the electrolyte in the electric field under the combined effects of the gradual process of forming a conductive path.

Proof Tracking Index Proof Tracking Index （PTI）: In 30 seconds the material surface to withstand a drop rate of 50 drops of the role of the electrolyte to form a permanent conductive carbon path required voltage to V represents.

Polymeric electrically insulating material has a special destruction phenomenon that polymeric insulating material surface may occur under certain conditions-tracking degradation phenomenon, and can lead to damage to tracking. Tracking damage is present on the surface when the material is wet and dirty, the electric field is large enough, the surface leakage current will be generated, when the current under the action of Joule heat, water is evaporated, the separation film surface with a gap formed （called the drying belt）, the drying belt to instantaneous field strength between the film reaches the discharge field strength which causes discharge, the discharge surface of the heat generated by partial carbonization material, high conductivity of the carbonization product, where the electric field density is concentrated to the carbonization section, causing the repeated discharge, around which produce more carbides, carbonized conductive path is formed, extending in a direction to the electrodes, resulting in a short circuit.

Sample thickness

GB/T4207-2003 requirements, the specimen thickness of not less than 3 mm, as is usually the case that the sample pad under glass or steel, because the test ionization NH4Cl solution will produce a lot of heat, heat the sample must withstand case, if the sample on the sample is too thin will quickly transfer heat away, would not achieve the specimens withstand the effects of ionizing NH4Cl solution. Therefore, the test specimen should be to ensure thickness of not less than 3 mm, the sample should be used the same material superimposed manner, the sample thickness of not less than 3 mm. Meanwhile superimposed sample size should be as consistent.

Distilled or deionized water resistivity

GB/T4207-2003 specified in distilled or deionized water with a prepared solution of NH4Cl, the resistivity of the solution （395 ± 5） Au · cm. However, the standard does not specify distilled or deionized water resistivity. I obtained in the long term test, distilled or deionized water may affect the resistivity of experimental results, the results of the test v

oltage is reduced. Because distilled or deionized water resistivity is low, it means distilled or deionized water containing negligible like ions, these impurity ions affect dubbed NH4Cl solution NH4 + and Cl-, and even accelerated NH4Cl solution ionized. Distilled or deionized water, the higher the resistivity, distilled or deionized water contains less impurity ions, the impact on the test results is smaller. From the author of a large number of experimental results, distilled or deionized water resistivity of not less than 10 M Europe · cm, thereby controlling distilled or deionized water impurity ions on the test results.

Short-circuit current test set

GB/T4207-2003 provides short-circuit current test before the test should be set to 1 A. Well here there are two possibilities:

（A） different test voltage is only set once short-circuit current;

（2） be set individually for each test voltage short circuit current. For different test voltage is only set once short-circuit current, for example, the test voltage is 200 V, short-circuit current to 1 A, then the test voltage is increased to 300 V, and then verify that the short circuit current, can be found in the current exceeds 1 A. If the test voltage is reduced to 150 V, the validation circuit current, you will find current of less than 1 A. So as to ensure compliance testing standards, adjusted once each test voltage, short-circuit current should be adjusted again.

Droplet size control amount

GB/T4207-2003 predetermined amount of liquid droplets in the size should be controlled at 44 drops / ml to 45 drops / ml. In the experiment, the number of drops can be controlled by a droplet counter, then how to determine the 44 drops to 45 drops is 1 mL it? The author summarizes a simple and effective method. NH4Cl solution, the percentage concentration of 0.1%, NH4Cl amount is small, then the density of the solution can be set to 1 g / mL. The solution was poured into a dropping vessel, a small container with a first weight of the empty container weighed, and the small container in the drip device, to accommodate the droplets. Start the instrument, drop out of NH4Cl solution 44 drops to 45 drops, and then weighed small container weight. Subtract two weights can be drawn after 44 drops to 45 drops of liquid droplets weight. If the weight is 1 g, it shows 44 drops to 45 drops of the solution was 1 ml; if more than 1 g, it shows excessive droplets, droplet volume should be adjusted to delay; if less than 1 g, it shows the amount of droplets too small, the amount of liquid droplets can be adjusted delay. This ensures that the droplet size of the volume compliance.

Clean the electrodes

GB/T4207-2003 states: test response electrode for cleaning. This means that after each do a test, the electrodes should be cleaned, whether it is at the same voltage or different voltages. Cleaning can use detergents, alcohol, etc. can also be used for cleaning, but may not use abrasive cleaners. After cleaning, apply NH4Cl solution was prepared using deionized or distilled water if the test sample combustion occurs, making the platinum electrode melting, then the electrodes should be trimmed. Dressing available when more than 1200 mesh sandpaper lightly polished on the part of the ablation to remove traces of ablation. Polished should be very careful not to change the outline of the electrodes, the electrode should be kept constant angle R of the blade, does not change the cylindrical surface of the electrode edge, the state should remain sharp, but not sharpened.

Six, Test principle:

On the surface of the solid insulating material, the required size （2mm × 5mm） between platinum electrodes, - applying a voltage and a time （30s） given height （35mm） drop required volume of conductive liquid droplet （0.1% NH 4CL） to evaluate the solid insulating material surface in wet or contaminated medium electric and combined effects of the anti-leakage performance, measured comparative tracking index （CT1） and the proof tracking index （PT1）.

Seven, test purposes:

Proof tracking test is to simulate the actual use of household products in the live parts of different polarity in the insulating material is deposited on the surface of a conductive material caused by insulation material surface creepage breakdown short circuit and fire hazard testing carried out. Electrical products in use, due to environmental causes dye hollow of a tree surface of insulating material with dirt, moisture and the leakage, thereby inducing the corrosion damage the insulation properties. Tests specified in this standard is an extremely harsh conditions simulated acceleration tests to verify whether the formation of an insulating material signs of leakage, which can distinguish solid insulating materials in a short anti-tracking ability, to ensure that products in certain environmental conditions safe use.

Other additional description:

Tracking （Tracking）: solid insulating material surface and the electrolyte in the electric field under the combined effects of the gradual process of forming a conductive path.

Proof Tracking Index Proof Tracking Index （PTI）: In 30 seconds the material surface to withstand a drop rate of 50 drops of the role of the electrolyte to form a permanent conductive carbon path required voltage to V represents.

Polymeric electrically insulating material has a special destruction phenomenon that polymeric insulating material surface may occur under certain conditions-tracking degradation phenomenon, and can lead to damage to tracking. Tracking damage is present on the surface when the material is wet and dirty, the electric field is large enough, the surface leakage current will be generated, when the current under the action of Joule heat, water is evaporated, the separation film surface with a gap formed （called the drying belt）, the drying belt to instantaneous field strength between the film reaches the discharge field strength which causes discharge, the discharge surface of the heat generated by partial carbonization material, high conductivity of the carbonization product, where the electric field density is concentrated to the carbonization section, causing the repeated discharge, around which produce more carbides, carbonized conductive path is formed, extending in a direction to the electrodes, resulting in a short circuit.

Sample thickness

GB/T4207-2003 requirements, the specimen thickness of not less than 3 mm, as is usually the case that the sample pad under glass or steel, because the test ionization NH4Cl solution will produce a lot of heat, heat the sample must withstand case, if the sample on the sample is too thin will quickly transfer heat away, would not achieve the specimens withstand the effects of ionizing NH4Cl solution. Therefore, the test specimen should be to ensure thickness of not less than 3 mm, the sample should be used the same material superimposed manner, the sample thickness of not less than 3 mm. Meanwhile superimposed sample size should be as consistent.

Distilled or deionized water resistivity

GB/T4207-2003 specified in distilled or deionized water with a prepared solution of NH4Cl, the resistivity of the solution （395 ± 5） Au · cm. However, the standard does not specify distilled or deionized water resistivity. I obtained in the long term test, distilled or deionized water may affect the resistivity of experimental results, the results of the test voltage is reduced. Because distilled or deionized water resistivity is low, it means distilled or deionized water containing negligible like ions, these impurity ions affect dubbed NH4Cl solution NH4 + and Cl-, and even accelerated NH4Cl solution ionized. Distilled or deionized water, the higher the resistivity, distilled or deionized water contains less impurity ions, the impact on the test results is smaller. From the author of a large number of experimental results, distilled or deionized water resistivity of not less than 10 M Europe · cm, thereby controlling distilled or deionized water impurity ions on the test results.

Short-circuit current test set

GB/T4207-2003 provides short-circuit current test before the test should be set to 1 A. Well here there are two possibilities:

（A） different test voltage is only set once short-circuit current;

（2） be set individually for each test voltage short circuit current. For different test voltage is only set once short-circuit current, for example, the test voltage is 200 V, short-circuit current to 1 A, then the test voltage is increased to 300 V, and then verify that the short circuit current, can be found in the current exceeds 1 A. If the test voltage is reduced to 150 V, the validation circuit current, you will find current of less than 1 A. So as to ensure compliance testing standards, adjusted once each test voltage, short-circuit current should be adjusted again.

Droplet size control amount

GB/T4207-2003 predetermined amount of liquid droplets in the size should be controlled at 44 drops / ml to 45 drops / ml. In the experiment, the number of drops can be controlled by a droplet counter, then how to determine the 44 drops to 45 drops is 1 mL it? The author summarizes a simple and effective method. NH4Cl solution, the percentage concentration of 0.1%, NH4Cl amount is small, then the density of the solution can be set to 1 g / mL. The solution was poured into a dropping vessel, a small container with a first weight of the empty container weighed, and the small container in the drip device, to accommodate the droplets. Start the instrument, drop out of NH4Cl solution 44 drops to 45 drops, and then weighed small container weight. Subtract two weights can be drawn after 44 drops to 45 drops of liquid droplets weight. If the weight is 1 g, it shows 44 drops to 45 drops of the solution was 1 ml; if more than 1 g, it shows excessive droplets, droplet volume should be adjusted to delay; if less than 1 g, it shows the amount of droplets too small, the amount of liquid droplets can be adjusted delay. This ensures that the droplet size of the volume compliance.

Clean the electrodes

GB/T4207-2003 states: test response electrode for cleaning. This means that after each do a test, the electrodes should be cleaned, whether it is at the same voltage or different voltages. Cleaning can use detergents, alcohol, etc. can also be used for cleaning, but may not use abrasive cleaners. After cleaning, apply NH4Cl solution was prepared using deionized or distilled water if the test sample combustion occurs, making the platinum electrode melting, then the electrodes should be trimmed. Dressing available when more than 1200 mesh sandpaper lightly polished on the part of the ablation to remove traces of ablation. Polished should be very careful not to change the outline of the electrodes, the electrode should be kept constant angle R of the blade, does not change the cylindrical surface of the electrode edge, the state should remain sharp, but not sharpened.
