Question
Electrical Engineering - High voltage system
The capacitance of a multi-layer parallel plate electrode system is 4.25 picofarad. Sum of the voltages across
the dielectric layers is equal to the voltage applied to the entire system. The relative permittivity (ɛ) and
electric field strength (Es) across any dielectric layer are given in table. The maximum voltage that could
have been applied to the system without having any discharge is 200 kV.
Find the area of electrode surface in cm².
