CTI is max voltage which material can withstands 50 drops of water contaminated with ammonium chloride etc, without tracking, i.e without formation of conductive path, due to Humidity, Contamination or Electrical stress.
Material Group | Comparative Tracking Index (CTI) – in Volts |
---|---|
Insulating Material group – I | 600V and above |
Insulating Material group – II | 400V to 599V |
Insulating Material group – IIIa | 175V to 399V |
Insulating Material group – IIIb | 100V to 174V |
