Abstract
The use of Weibull statistics to study dielectric failure is discussed. Fractal processes involved in breakdown are considered, with particular emphasis on the stochastic progress of a filamentary discharge or conducting path. Here fluctuations in the length at a given time will lead to a Weibull statistic in time. Electrical trees are used to illustrate some of the points discussed.<>
