    Graduate E field between 2 parrallel conductors

    Does anyone have have or know the equation for a long wire? I don't have any texts on this subject and I can't seem to find anything online.

    Graduate E field between 2 parrallel conductors

    sorry, my conductors are wires not plates But If I simply divide votlage I find that at 13200 volts the distance is only 4.4 mm and I find it really hard to believe that I can get a wire at 13kV that close to ground without it arcing

    Graduate E field between 2 parrallel conductors

    [FONT="Georgia"][FONT="Times New Roman"]I’m trying to determine the how close 2 parallel infinitely long cylindrical conductors can get before they will arc together. Assume the conductors will be separated only by air, and I know that the Dielectric Strength of air is 3x10^6 V/m. So I figured...
