Abstract :
Investigations were made of various factors which affect the surface flashover strength across polymethylmethacrylate, tetraflouroethylene and polyethylene surfaces in vacuum. The factors studied included specimen conditioning under DC and AC voltage, specimen´s length, and the effect of surge voltage wave-shape.
