Dielectric Breakdown Voltage CalculatorĀ
Dielectric Breakdown Voltage Calculator computes the breakdown voltage of a dielectric material based on its dielectric strength and the distance between electrodes. Select the material, input the electrode distance, select units, and calculate the breakdown voltage.

How to Use Dielectric Breakdown Voltage Calculator:
- Select the dielectric material (e.g., Air, Glass, Mica, Teflon).
- Enter the distance between electrodes using the keypad or direct input; use “Next” to switch fields.
- Select the unit for distance (m, mm, Āµm).
- Click “Calculate” to see step-by-step results.
- Use “Share Result” to get shareable text or “Copy Result” to copy to clipboard.
Formula:
Breakdown Voltage (V_b):
V_b = E_d Ć d
Where: V_b = breakdown voltage (V), E_d = dielectric strength (V/m), d = electrode distance (m)
Important Notes:
- Input for electrode distance must be positive. Invalid inputs will trigger an error.
- Dielectric strength values are approximate and assume standard conditions (e.g., dry air, uniform field).
