Abstract :
Although the initiation voltage of the tree at the needle electrode in a plastic with OC voltage is very high, a sort of tree can be formed by earthing the needle after charging it with much lower OC voltage than the initiation voltage. The tree formed by earthing will be called “earthing tree” here. Since the formation of the tree in AC field is considered as the effect of repetition of charging and discharging, some relation may exist between the AC tree and earthing tree.
