<p>The arrangement has multiple blade electrodes (3) arranged at an angle to a direction of transport of the strip material and placed parallel to one another. The distances (a-e) between adjacent blade electrodes are different. The distances between adjacent blade electrodes on the edge of the electrode arrangement (1) are greater than the distances of adjacent blade electrodes in its centre. An independent claim is also included for a device for continuous plasma treatment or plasma coating of strip material.</p>
