Earth Terminations
The earthing of the cable itself may be carried out by fixing the
cable to the hull constructions, or to parts that are welded or
riveted to the hull constructions (metal to metal without paint or
coating), by corrosion resistant clamps or metal clips.
Clearance
Clearance is the shortest distance between two conductive parts measured through air.
Creepage
Creepage is the shortest distance between two conductive parts measured along a surface.
