Hi A 5 kV peak voltage between needle points will produce a spark 0.42 centimeters. See "Handbook of Chemistry and Physics" under "Spark-Gap Voltages". There is a table for spark gap distance versus voltage and electrode shape. There are also corrections for temperature and pressure. The work

Hi Allen: The voltage breakdown of air is presented in IEC 664. There is no fixed number (i.e., mm/kV) that describes or predicts voltage breakdown of air. The principle factor that affects voltage breakdown is the shape of the electrodes (degree of homogeneousness of the electric

I remember seeing a figure for voltage breakdown through air recently, but can't remember what it is. Seems like it's 1mm per 1000 volts or something like that. Can anyone help? Specifically, I'm concerned about how much spacing is required between components and chassis t
