The breadth of the ring was various sizes at 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1.0, 1.25 and 1.5 cm. The gap space for specimen was determined 0.5 cm with a diameter of 2.2 cm. When applied the 1.2/50 micro sec positive impulse voltages to 9-150 kV. The results showed that at the level of 0-60 kV the LFA with different ring’s breadth have the same flashover length. The flashover length of LFA under 1.2/50 micro positive impulse voltage was longer than negative impulse voltage when adjusted the applied voltage level >81 kV and the explicit difference of flashover lengths increased when increased the positive and negative impulse voltage to 130 kV.
