Greetings, I am concerned about rules for stand-off distance for copper pour on an outer layer to provide added isolation to a pair of sensitive low current traces. There are other traces on the top layer as well. The basic info is 50 ohm impedance, 10 mil wide microstrip, digital TTL signal current as low as in 10s of mili-amps, FR-4 material, 1 oz copper.
