The two points exhibiting the greatest differ-ence of potential, and, consequently, giving rise to the most powerfulcurrent, lie in the equator and in the centre of the transverse of gradually-diminishing intensity are obtained when the elec-trode placed on the longitudinal surface is removed from the equatortoward either extremity. Feeble currents are developed when twopoints, situated at unequal distances, either on corresponding or oppo-site sides of the equator, are connected ; in either case, the current flowsfrom the point lying nearest the equatorto the point farthest from it. Similarcurrents are obtained when two pointson the cross-section, situated at unequaldistances from the central axis, are united,in which case the direction of the currentwill be from the poi
