After the initial lessons at home, Lebedinski attended the 2nd  St. Petersburg High School, which he graduated with a silver medal in 1887. He then studied at the Imperial University of St. Petersburg in the mathematics department of the physical- mathematical faculty . After graduating in 1891 with a 1st class diploma, he became a teacher at the 5th St. Petersburg High School (until 1900). At the same time he was a laboratory assistant at the Department of Physics at the St. Petersburg Electrotechnical Institute and from 1893 laboratory assistant at the Department of Physics at the University of St. Petersburg. In 1894 he was sent on a study trip to Austria-Hungary , Italy and Switzerland .

In 1895 Lebedinski became an employee of the St. Petersburg Electrotechnical Institute. His research focus was electrical spark discharge . He was sent to the Paris World's Fair in 1900 , where he met Marie and Pierre Curie , Paul Langevin and Henri Becquerel . He received a doctorate in technical sciences . In 1906 he moved to the St. Petersburg Polytechnic Institute . Here he worked on the theory of high frequency transformers . In 1913 Lebedinski became a professor at the Riga Polytechnic Institute.

After the October Revolution in 1919 Lebedinsky took part in the organization of the Nizhny Novgorod radio laboratory, founded with Ukas Lenins , and worked there until 1925. In 1926 he returned to Leningrad and took over the chair of physics, first at the Medical Institute and then at the Military Medical Academy (WMA). Finally, he headed the chair for the physical basics of electrical engineering at the Railway Institute . He carried out experimental studies on the magnetization of iron and in particular on the magnetic Barkhausen effect .

Lebedinski's son was the physiologist Andrei Vladimirovich Lebedinsky .
