Analysis of a back flashover across insulator strings on a 115 kV transmission line tower by PSCAD
KKU Engineering Journal, 2015 Lightning striking on a transmission tower induces high ground potential rise and high voltage at tower arms in which potential is normally at ground level, and subsequently causes overvoltage across an insulator string.

An Underappreciated Radiation Hazard from High Voltage Electrodes in Vacuum
, 2016 The use of high voltage (HV) electrodes in vacuum is commonplace in physics laboratories. In such systems, it has long been known that electron emission from an HV cathode can lead to bremsstrahlung X-rays; indeed, this is the basic principle behind the ...
