Abstract

An electrical device includes first and second terminals and a terminal holder holding the first and second terminals. A first insulation layer is provided between the first and second terminals and a second insulation layer is provided between the first and second terminals. The first and second insulation layers are different materials. The first insulation layer is a base layer and the second insulation layer is a high arc tracking resistance rated layer on the base layer to discourage arc tracking on the first insulation layer.
