Where
Dm is the GMD
r is the conductor radius
δ is the air density factor where

The Factors that reduce the break down strength of air are
1. rain,
2. mist,
3. fog,
4. humidity
5. temperature
6. pressure
7. pollution and,
8. thunder storms which may reduce it to about 80%,
9. conductor dimensions and conditions.
The disruptive critical voltage Vo of the phase voltage is
