If the con-denser must withstand a very high voltage, the plates will bemore widely separated, and usually air or oil is used as thedielectric. If it is desired to have the capacity of the condenservariable instead of fixed, the construction usually takes theform shown in Fig. 49, page 95. Two sets of interleaved platesare insulated from each other, and one set is mounted so thatit can be rotated with respect to the other.
