Abstract
A terminal strip and a method of improving a creepage dielectric strength of the same includes a base plate, a barrier, each constructed from an insulating material, and a plurality of terminals constructed from a conducting material. The terminals are connected to the base plate and spaced along a surface thereof. The barrier is disposed between adjacent terminals and configured such that the creepage dielectric strength of the insulating material between adjacent terminals is equal to or greater than a bulk dielectric strength of the insulating material between adjacent terminals.
