Can an ESD create a current path?

(1/2) > >>

int6h:
Since plasma is conductive, can a spark of ESD create a current path in a spark gap?

CopperCone:
yes look at tubes like krytron

int6h:
Thanks for the answer.
Can it be dangerous for HV electronics? I mean, you're not supposed to put your finger in there anyway, but other surfaces can also create ESD.

JustMeHere:
Absolutely.   Watching lightning real close.

exe:
I think so, check this out: (spoiler alert: exploded light bulb destroyed MCU)
