1. Physical aspects of the AC voltage phenomenon
1.1 Nature of the crown effect
The corona effect refers to all the phenomena associated with the appearance of gas conductivity in the environment of a conductor subjected to high voltage.
This conductivity is due to the phenomenon of ionization, which can be explained as follows:
There are always a certain number of positive ion - free electron pairs in the air, created by cosmic radiation or natural radioactivity....
