Usage example

Unit of measure: mm

Insulation medium: low density polyethylene / high density vinyl

DC = 2.3 dielectric constant

Number of plates (N): 100

Board spacing (D): 5

Board area (A):

Length (overlap) (L): 100

Width (overlap) (W): 60 hours;

\(C= \frac {8.85 \times 10^{-12} \times DC \times A}{D} \times (N-1)\)

(\(A=L \times W\))

Capacitance: C=0.002418μF

Note

Insulation medium: low density polyethylene / high density vinyl, glass, mica, air, PVC polyvinyl chloride
