RE: gap breakdown voltages



Hi Chris
		You'll find a spark table on page 12-2 of the
Tesla Design Manual, by J H Couture. I have several other
such tables, but none of them a particularly consistent.

Original poster: CTCDW-at-aol-dot-com

Hello all!

I was wondering if there exists a chart giving approximate breakdown
voltages
through air. I understand that there are many variables, such as humidity,
electrode radius, etc, but  ballpark figure is all I am looking for.
This info is of interest to me in setting my safety gaps, and knowing about
where they would fire.

Thanks for any assistance!

Chris
