Specification

and Clause Nos.



Remarks IEC 60669-1:2007 (Edition 3.2) 24.2 Resistance to Tracking For switches that have an IP code higher than IPX0, parts of insulating material retaining

live parts in position shall be resistant to tracking. 50 drops of solution of ammonium chloride in distilled water to fall centrally between 2 electrodes 4 mm apart at 175 V a.c. after which no flashover or breakdown shall occur.

Not applicable

25 Resistance to rusting Ferrous parts shall be adequately protected against rusting. After being degreased &

immersed in a solution of ammonium chloride in water for 10 min. Then a further 10 min. in air saturated with moisture followed by 10 min. drying at 100°C - the surfaces shall show no signs of rusts.
