Can be used to replace
plugs with 2, 3 or 4 ground electrodes?
Yes. The reason is that the 0.4mm center electrode
of lowers the required voltage compared
to 2, 3 and 4 electrode plugs and provides
superior ignitability.
<
Required voltage
>
Required voltage decreases as the electrode gets thinner because the electric field
strength affecting required voltage becomes stronger. As shown in the following diagram
modeling each electrode shape, requires less voltage than
the 2 electrode plug.
<
Ignitability
>
Cooling effect from the electrode decreases and ignitability increases to the extent
that the contact area between the flame kernel and electrodes is smaller. Due to its
0.4mm center electrode,
has less contact area between
the flame kernel and electrodes and better ignitability than 2 electrode plugs.
