Purpose: The purpose of this paper was to collect full description of interdigit capacitor (IDC) used in interdigit dielectrometry and to point out on the way how it should be applied in practice. Design/methodology/approach: The full graphical representation of IDC geometry and its description was demonstrated and described. Capacity of IDC and electric potential distribution as well as charge density distribution on flat comb electrodes were demonstrated. Findings: Though the analytical formulas of effective IDC capacity and potential distribution are complicated, the practical application of IDC in dielectric measurements is much simpler than those of flat or cylindrical capacitors. Research limitations/implications: Practical limitations were formulated and specified together with their meanings. Practical implications: Universality of measuring procedure with IDC application was pointed out and completed. Originality/value: Complete description of IDC parameters will make easier for potential investigator from many scientific disciplines to see how one have to understand and apply in practice IDC dielectrometry technique as well as potentially make the IDC parameter optimal for given application.
