The measurement of power and current is very important to study discharge characteristics of dielectric barrier discharge (DBD). In order to analyze the effect of measure elements on discharge characteristics of DBD, three different resistors and capacitors are used for measuring discharge current and power, respectively. The resistance values of the resistors are 5.1 Ω, 15 Ω and 56 Ω. The capacitances of the capacitors are 2.2 nF, 22 nF and 150 nF. The experiments are carried out in a stainless mesh electrode DBD system. The discharge characteristics are obtained by using Lissajous figures and the discharge current. The results show that smaller capacitance and bigger resistance are suitable for obtaining the perfect lissajous and discharge current due to their improving the stability of DBD.
