Hi. I am not too sure about the electric field from AC overhead lines, I understand an electric field from a charged particle but not too sure when there are electrons moving back and forward quickly as in AC what the field looks like??
Can someone please explain to me what the electric field from overhead lines looks like, is it just away from the conductor core radially (can anyone refer me to a diagram for this) and why is it so. Is the electric field alternating ? Do you need current to flow for the field to exist or does it exist just with a potential?
