An aircraft includes a chamber (1), a processor, a memory, and a compressor system (12b) in fluid communication with the chamber. The compressor system (12b) configured to selectively pressurize the chamber (1). The chamber supports a fuel cell (26), a motor, and/or electrical components that electrically communicate with the fuel cell (26) and the motor to power the aircraft. The memory includes instructions stored thereon, which when executed by the processor, cause the aircraft to receive an altitude value of the aircraft, and selectively pressurize the chamber using the compressor system based on the received altitude value to reduce corona discharge in the chamber.
