Abstract :
An apparatus for the assessment of charge deposited in gaseous surface discharges has been designed and tested. It can provide a fresh surface for each test and permits a scan of surface charges seated (or deposited) along the interface. In this way several hundred fresh surfaces can be tested without dismantling the gas enclosure. Experimental results are presented for a case study example
