Insulation distance check device

An insulation distance check device comprising:

• a unit which designates a high potential component, a conductive component and an insulation component to 3D CAD (3-Dimensional Computer Aided Design) data;
• a unit which provides a distance condition associated with a first distance between at least two components among the high potential component, the conductive component and the insulation component;
• a unit which superimposes on the 3D CAD data a layer spatially surrounding the high potential component and creates a layer map associating the layer with the first distance;
• a unit which determines a second distance associated with the layer contacting with a portion of the conductive component, the second distance being a distance between the high potential component and the portion of the conductive component;
• a unit which compares the second distance with the distance condition;
• and
• a unit which characteristically displays at least one region occupied by said portion of the conductive component, on which the second distance having been determined to dissatisfy the distance condition is based;
• and a path connecting the high potential component and the conductive component;
• wherein the conductive component is modified based on the at least one region occupied by said portion of the conductive component and is physically made.
