Electrical quasi-neutrality is not a general property of a thermalized self-gravitating plasma. If the massive component of a two-component plasma consists of charged macroscopic solid grains for which the charge-to-mass ratio is of order sq root of G, then self-gravitation and thermalization lead to substantial large-scale charge separation. An alternative statement of the condition for substantial equilibrium charge separation is that the Jeans length and Debye length of the plasma are similar. A system of condensations in such a plasma is considered, and it is shown that properties of the system are similar to observed properties of the system of galaxies.
