Claim:
A plasma display panel including a front panel and a back panel arranged in opposition to each other with a discharge space therebetween, a display electrode pair including a bus electrode being arranged on the front panel, a plurality of discharge cells being formed in a display area along the display electrode pair, and a barrier rib for separating adjacent discharge cells being arranged on the back panel so as to cross over the display electrode pair, wherein the bus electrode has a projection in a part that overlaps with the barrier rib, a line width of the bus electrode is larger in a part that includes the projection than in a part that faces the discharge space, and a width of the projection in a part other than a vicinity of a root part is equal to or smaller than a maximum width of the barrier rib and a width of the root part is larger than the maximum width of the barrier rib, so that the root part extends beyond the barrier rib in a width direction toward the discharge space.
