NOVELTY - An electric component consists of live electrical portion and an insulating resin molded articles (13,23) formed from thermoplastic resin composition including polyphenylene ether resin or mixed resin of polyphenylene ether resin and styrene resin (A), hydrogenated block copolymer (B), flame retardant (C), and titanium oxide (D). At least one creeping distance including the length portion which extends between live electrical portion and outer surface portion of electrical component in which the live electrical portion is separated electrically by molded article, is 15-40 mm.    USE - Electric component is used for connector and junction box of solar cell (all claimed) used in solar module application. Can also be used in industrial equipment business machines, chassis, consumer electronics-related equipment e.g. power adapter, recording medium and drive, sensor equipment, secondary battery used in energy and environment sectors, fuel cells, solar thermal power generation, geothermal power generation and wind power generation, hybrid vehicle, electric vehicle, power adapter portion, power inverter portion and LED lighting.    ADVANTAGE - The electrical component is highly-safe and capable of stably maintaining flame retardance, even after heat-resistant aging, and has excellent tracking resistance, impact resistance and rigid balance.    DETAILED DESCRIPTION - An electric component consists of live electrical portion and insulating resin molded articles which are molded from thermoplastic resin composition and are in contact with the live electrical portion. The thermoplastic resin composition includes 60-80 parts mass polyphenylene ether resin or mixed resin of polyphenylene ether resin and styrene resin (A), 60-80 parts mass hydrogenated block copolymer (B), 5-30 parts mass flame retardant (C), and 0.1-3 parts mass titanium oxide (D). At least one creeping distance including the length portion which extends between live electrical portion and outer surface portion of electrical component in which the live electrical portion is separated electrically by the insulating resin molded article, is 15-40 mm, the length portion being formed along the outer surface of the insulating resin molded article. The content of component (D) is with respect to total weight of the components (A-C). An INDEPENDENT CLAIM is included for flame-retardant stabilization method.    DESCRIPTION OF DRAWING(S) - The drawing shows a schematic sectional view of the electronic component.
