Abstract

  Tracking phenomenon, to put it plainly, is the phenomenon to form the carbonized electrical track and lose insulation in the part with potential difference on the surface of insulating materials. Tracking resistance means the difficulty occuring the tracking phenomenon of the organic insulation materials. Studies on the tracking phenomenon and the method of evaluating tracking resistance has been often reported on so far. But, there are only a few comprehensive researches and commentaries which include tracking phenomenon and the fire which occurs by the tracking phenomenon. Hence, I decided to explain tracking phenomenon of the organic insulating materials and the phenomenon that developed concerning the fire which develops and is called, tracking fire. Tracking phenomenon is discussed first. Next, cases of tracking fire in electric wiring and the wiring utensil and the studies on the cause of tracking fire are explained. Furthermore, prevention of tracking fire and future problems are also discussed.<br>
