Case 2632 ยท Public preview
Inadequate Insulation and Fractured Supports Can Collapse Electrical Clearances
Multiple circuit breakers showed internal flashover, thermal damage, and fractured plastic housing or support features.

What the evidence preview establishes
The flashovers resulted from exposed portions of a manually formed bus conductor, an uninsulated metal shaft through a circuit-board opening, and weak plastic parts that could shift internal clearances.
Why this case matters
Electrical clearance depends on the structure maintaining it. Insulate formed conductors, isolate metal pass-through hardware, tool the bend geometry, and treat cracked supports as electrical-safety defects.
