1. A groove may have parallel, converging or diverging sides.+ h2 W; i, Q. Y
2. Any groove having diverging sides, a minimum width exceeding 0,25 mm, a depth exceeding 1,5 mm and a width at the bottom equal to or greater than 1 mm, is regarded as an air gap.8 T* m6 F% L6 ^0 V0 [0 j
3. Any corner including an angle less than 80° is assumed to be bridged with an insulating link of 1 mm width (0,25 mm for dirt-free situations) moved into the most unfavourable position.
( L) X) r9 h' l( U4. Where the distance across the top of a groove is 1 mm (0,25 mm for dirt-free situations) or more, no creepage distance exists across the air space .! l" b: w0 C! l( x% T. E
5. A creepage path is assumed not to exist if there is an air gap as defined in item 2 above exceeding 0,25 mm.

8. Any air gap less than 1 mm wide (0,25 mm for dirt-free situations) is ignored in computing the total clearance. |
