A gas discharge in an extended gap between a liquid electrolyte cathode and a copper anode was studied experimentally. The discharge was obtained in an open air atmosphere at a distance of 2-18 cm between the electrodes. It was revealed that there are combustion modes with a homogeneous and inhomogeneous plasma column. The electrical properties of the discharge in these two combustion modes were studied. The electric field strength in the plasma column was determined by varying the length of the discharge gap.
