My assumed understanding of the 26kv/cm was I guess set on the North
Report, in that, this value was the value of "corona inception". The
spark itself breaking out would have to occur following this corona
inception voltage. It is then only dependent on a value after 26kV/cm.
Anyway, that was always my understanding. Has everyone else thought
differently?
