I would think that a plane - plane 
equation would only apply when the gap 
between the electrodes was significantly 
less than the diameter of the flat area, 
if you had - for example, two round, flat 
electrodes 1 cm in dia and 1m apart it 
would be best modelled as two points or 
balls rather than a plane.
