To my doubts of the data (Phelps-Dodge) I reported on magnet wire breakdown:
I checked on the DC breakdown of armored polythermaleze coated
magnet wire -18gauge 1.5mils of coating. Two touching or twisted wires could
easily withstand 8KV across 3mils (2 wires) of insultion! That's at the
LEAST a breakdown field of 2670 kV/mil. Belden claims it is actually rated
at 3500 kV/mil.....
