The Electric Currents Interface solves a current conservation problem for the scalar electric potential V and is available for 3D, 2D in-plane, and 2D axisymmetric components. Electrolysis and the computation of resistances of grounding plates are examples that involve conductive media with electrical conductivities and electric currents. If you are uncertain of whether to use the Electric Currents or the Electrostatics interface, which both solve for the scalar electric potential V, refer to the section on Charge Relaxation Theory.
