IEC 60112:2025(Main)

Method for the determination of the proof and the comparative tracking indices of solid insulating materials

IEC 60112:2025 specifies the method of test for the determination of the proof and comparative tracking indices of solid insulating materials on pieces taken from parts of equipment and on plaques of material using alternating voltage. This document provides a procedure for the determination of erosion when required. The proof tracking index is used as an acceptance criterion as well as a means for the quality control of materials and fabricated parts. The comparative tracking index is mainly used for the basic characterization and comparison of the properties of materials. This test method evaluates the composition of the material as well as the surface of the material being evaluated. Both the composition and surface condition directly influence the results of the evaluation and are considered when using the results in material selection process. The described test method is designed for a test voltage up to 600 V AC, because higher test voltages and DC voltage will lead to a reduced test severity. Test results are not directly suitable for the evaluation of safe creepage distances when designing electrical apparatus. The results of this method have been used for insulation coordination of equipment. It is important that use of these results also considers the overvoltage levels, creepage distances, and establishes the pollution degree to which the product insulation system will be expected to be subjected. This is in compliance with IEC 60664-1. This basic safety publication focusing on a safety test method is primarily intended for use by technical committees in the preparation of safety publications in accordance with the principles laid down in IEC Guide 104 and lSO/lEC Guide 51. One of the responsibilities of a technical committee is, wherever applicable, to make use of basic safety publications in the preparation of its publications. This sixth edition cancels and replaces the fifth edition published in 2020. This edition constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
- In 7.3, the term "resistivity" has been replaced by "conductivity".
It has the status of a basic safety publication in accordance with IEC Guide 104.

IEC 60112:2003+AMD1:2009 CSV(Main)

Method for the determination of the proof and the comparative tracking indices of solid insulating materials

IEC 60112:2003+A1:2009 Specifies the method of test for the determination of the proof and comparative tracking indices of solidinsulating materials on pieces taken from parts of equipment and on plaques of material using alternating voltages. The standard provides for the determination of erosion when required. Test results cannot be used directly for the evaluation of safe creepage distances when designing electrical apparatus. Has the status of a basic safety publication in accordance with IEC Guide 104. Major changes since the previous edition are the following: The selection of a material for a specific application frequently involves compromises in the levels of the individual properties and test criteria. In the previous edition of IEC 60112 the test criteria required "no burning of the specimen", but this gave rise to two issues:
- difficulties in the identification of burning which includes all types of combustion, e.g. flaming, and smouldering in the situation where scintillations had occurred giving rise in many cases to carbon on the surface of the specimen, and
- a situation in which some product committees had found it necessary to dispense with the "no burning" criterion in the tracking tests which they replaced by flame tests on the final product, thereby giving rise to two types of CTI/PTI with different criteria.
The contents of the corrigenda of June 2003 and October 2003 have been included in this copy. This consolidated version consists of the fourth edition (2003) and its amendment 1 (2009). Therefore, no need to order amendment in addition to this publication.
