<p>A distributor for distributing high-voltage pulses generated by an ignition coil to individual ignition plugs through a center electrode, a rotor electrode and a plurality of side electrodes disposed opposite to the rotor electrode with a discharge gap defined therebetween, in which the discharge-participating area of the rotor electrode and/or each side electrode includes finely interspersed conductive regions and high-resistance regions thereby reducing the discharge voltage at the discharge gap between the rotor electrode and each side electrode for suppressing generation of radio noises.</p>
