dielectric strength

Definition

The appropriate product category
The actual AC voltage that can be withstood when applied for one minute between the input and output terminals, or between the I/O terminals and the metal case (heat sink).
The appropriate product category
The maximum voltage at which insulation will not break down when a high voltage is applied for one minute to the same location as the one used to measure the insulation resistance.
The appropriate product category
The voltage that can be endured when an AC voltage is applied between discontinuous terminals, between each terminal and non-current-carrying metal parts, and between each terminal and ground. (The leakage current is specified separately.)
The appropriate product category
The voltage that the insulation of an electrical device can withstand for a specific period of time.
