Results are presented of investigations of the surface relaxation of electret charge. It is established that when the electret is exposed to increased moisture, the charge transfer is of a percolation nature. Characteristics of the adsorption and growth of electrically conducting phase nuclei during the formation of a percolation cluster at an electrified surface are studied. The critical index of the correlation length of the percolation cluster is determined and shows good agreement with known theoretical estimates.
