Air breakdown characteristics in plane-plane and sphere gap electrode configuration under lightning impulse

This report describes the air breakdown characteristics in plane-plane and sphere gap electrode configuration under lightning impulse. The breakdown in air (spark breakdown) is the transition of a non-sustaining discharge into a self�sustaining discharge. In electrical power system, high voltage...
