the conductor which is non-uniformly distributed over the surface such that it has higher
density on the adjacent sides of the conductors. This charge distribution can be considered as
a line charge as in the previous section. The surface of the conductor represents an equipotential
surface with circular cross-section and radius equal to r. So the objective will be to find out the
equivalent line charge distribution for a system of two conductors with operating voltage V,
distance of separation h and radius of the equipotential surface r. This equivalent charge
distribution, as can be seen from Fig. 3.4 and the results of the previous section, will be a line
charge L coulomb/metre separated by a distance s, where s can be obtained from any of the
equations (3.13) or (3.14).
