Hi Antonio,This is interesting. I can certainly understand a low electric field along the surface of the interconnect, but I personally expected a small wire as you mentioned to throw off some corona and create breakout points simply due to the small radius. I guess again this would be something maybe Phil could easily try if he's still setup. With the mention of the low electric field along the surface, I guess I can understand no breakout with say a 3" radius, but for a small #10 I would be amazed. That would be really cool! Hey Phil, amaze me!
Take care, Bart Antonio Carlos M. de Queiroz wrote:
