I was playing with some High-Voltage the other day, when a question popped into my head. Can you calculate length of an electrical arc? It probably would be proportional to :-
1. Voltage of the source
2. Spark gap
3. Relative Humidity (in air only)
4. Resistivity of Medium
5. Shape of the Electrodes
Can anyone come up with a dimensional formula from this...?
