Analysis of capacitance to ground formulas for different high-voltage electrodes

Stray capacitance can seriously affect the behavior of high-voltage devices, including voltage dividers, insulator strings, modular power supplies, or measuring instruments, among others. Therefore its effects must be considered when designing high-voltage projects and tests. Due to the difficulty i...
