High-voltage engineering

ratio of the switching impulse strength of an air gap geometry to that of a rod-plane gap of the same length.

In high-voltage engineering, gap factor refers to ratio of the switching impulse strength of an air gap geometry to that of a rod-plane gap of the same length. This meaning comes from Paris (1968) in IEEE Transactions on Power Apparatus and Systems.[1]
