If two parallel conductors are implemented, then the field will be homogeneous; if we have a point protruding into the gap with a radius less than 20% radius of the gap distance, then we would have an inhomogeneous field. Whether a field is homogeneous or inhomogeneous has a significant impact on the clearance. In IEC 60664 for a 2,5kV impulse voltage we would need a clearance distance of 1,5mm for inhomogeneous, but for a homogeneous field this would only need to be 0,6mm.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\r\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;69e76d631a18a&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"69e76d631a18a\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-lightbox-container\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"548\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" class=\"wp-image-7607\" src=\"https:\/\/lorit-consultancy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Fig-2-1920x548.png\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lorit-consultancy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Fig-2-1920x548.png 1920w, https:\/\/lorit-consultancy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Fig-2-1024x292.png 1024w, https:\/\/lorit-consultancy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Fig-2-768x219.png 768w, https:\/\/lorit-consultancy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Fig-2-1536x438.png 1536w, https:\/\/lorit-consultancy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Fig-2-2048x584.png 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\taria-label=\"Vergr\u00f6\u00dfern\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.imageButtonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.imageButtonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button>\r\n<figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Figure 2.
