The insulating material should have____________?
Correct answer: D. all of the above
- A. low permittivity
- B. high resistivity
- C. high dielectric strength
- D. all of the above
Explanation
A good insulator has high resistivity to limit leakage, high dielectric strength to withstand voltage, and low permittivity to reduce capacitance. Thus all the listed properties are desirable.
