A single, straight wire already has some inductance.  A straight wire, or electrode, typically has some inductance due to its unique shape. This may be significant when working with high frequencies (>10kHz) and low impedances (1 ohm).

Inductance of Straight Wire & Electrode Calculator

L = K x a x [ { ln (2l / a) } – 0.75] Where; L = Inductance in µH K = 0.00508 (dims in inchs) = 0.0002 (dims in mm) a = wire radius (inches or mm) l = wire length (inches or mm) ln = Natural Logarithm = 2.303 * Common Log [base 10]

Calculator for Inductance: Formulas and Equations:

L = K x [ ln (2l / a) – 0 .75]
