Definition of "Dielectric Strength" |
The ability of a dielectric material of specified thickness to withstand high voltages without breaking down. / The ability of an insulator to withstand a potential difference without breaking down (usually expressed in terms of voltage). The maximum potential gradient that a material can withstand without rupture. As a material property it usually is calculated by dividing the breakdown voltage by the thickness of the material between a pair of test electrodes. Dielectric Strength is usually expressed as volts/unit thickness. / The maximum voltage an insulation system can withstand before breakdown, expressed in volts per mil of insulation thickness. / The maximum voltage an insulating material can withstand without breaking down. |
