Positive temperature coefficient of resistivity barium titanate ceramic is a semiconductor at room temperature, so it is self-heated under certain applied voltage, and then changes into an insulator. The electrical breakdown has been investigated with the resistance-temperature characteristics of the three samples which have different compositions. The grain size effect on the breakdown voltage also is discussed. As the applied voltage increased, the electrical breakdown was initiated when the specimen interior was heated above the temperature corresponding to the maximum resistance on the resistance-temperature curves by joule heat.
