The exact clearances and creepage distances well separation distances based Table must derived from the application items
cited above.2.13, accordance with the alternative procedure for dimensioning isolation distances given
in Annex F.2 “Connect-

Outside:
a)
Isolated intrinsically safe circuits: least mm
All PCB terminal blocks listed the ordering pages suitable for “i” applications fulfill these requirements.
Terminal blocks with smaller pin spacing may also used for internal connections, provided they meet the requirements laid out Table 5
(see below).” general, the following can stated for terminal blocks based figure 1:
“Example isolated intrinsically safe terminal blocks with partition” conjunction with figure “Example isolation conductive parts,”
considering Table “Clearances, Creepage and Isolation Distances.
