Abstract :
The breakdown development of a covered rod/plane air-gap arrangement was investigated under lightning impulse stress. At positive polarity of the rod a flashover along the cover surface is followed by a breakdown of the air-gap. At negative polarity a breakdown of the air-gap is followed by a flashover along the cover surface
