Abstract
In a spark plug, a discharge gap is formed between a ground electrode and a central electrode. The ground electrode has a rod-shaped part and an opposing part. The opposing part faces the central electrode, and has a flat surface part and a slope surface part. The slope surface part is formed on a part of the opposing part in an extending direction of the ground electrode, and formed on the opposing part and gradually separated from the central electrode along a width direction of the opposing part. The spark plug has a ratio V/W within a range of 0.5<V/W<2.0. V indicates a length of the opposing part measured in a gap formation direction in which the central electrode, the discharge gap and the opposing part are arranged in order. W indicates a length of the opposing part in the ground electrode width direction.
