ABOUT AN INSULATED CONDUCTOR. 325 The two systems are separated by a surface resemblingone of the sheets of a hyperboloid of two sheets. A systemof equipotential surfaces encloses each charged point, andthese are in turn surrounded by a third system, of which thelimiting case is a surface of two… … 281. Field about an Insulated Conductor. — Fig. 198 illus-trates roughly the in-ductive effect of acharged body, B, on aspherical conductor, A. As the conductor isbrought into the field,it assumes the poten-tial at that point, andthe equipotential sur-face includes A as acavity in itself. Sinceas…
