The unit for dielectric strength is ____________(a) V/m^2(b) MV/m^2(c) MV/m(d) VmThe question was posed to me during a job interview.My question is from Dielectric Strength topic in division Capacitance and Capacitors of Basic Electrical Engineering

Answer»

Right CHOICE is (c) MV/m

For EXPLANATION I would SAY: DIELECTRIC strength is the potential gradient required to cause a BREAKDOWN in the material. Potential gradient is the ratio of voltage and length, its unit is MV/m.
