outdoor durability
Rain and UV
Outdoor equipment requires UV stability, water protection and color retention.
F1 / IP protection
EV CHARGING
Outdoor electrical safety starts with high-CTI materials
Charging stations and high-voltage structures face UV, wet heat, thermal cycling and voltage stress. Flame, insulation and dimensional stability must work together.

Operating conditions
Four critical conditions for EV charging equipment
Each section follows the failure path for this application. Final targets depend on part design, wall thickness and the customer test plan.
02
CTI + IPT
High-voltage insulation
Tracking and leakage must be controlled together with terminal and busbar design.
CTI 600V / IPT 1500V
03
dimensional stability
Thermal cycling
Day-night cycles and charging heat can cause warpage, seal loss and insert stress.
HDT 120°C
04
heat + rigidity
Internal heat
Power components need long-term heat resistance and creep control.

Validation & certification
Outdoor high-voltage equipment needs combined validation
High CTI alone does not make a compliant assembly; material, creepage, sealing and terminals must be tested together.
