Boundary and Edge Nodes for the Electric Currents, Layered Shell Interface
 The Electric Currents, Layered Shell Interface has these boundary and edge nodes available from the Physics ribbon toolbar (Windows users), Physics context menu (Mac or Linux users), or right-click to access the context menu (all users).
In general, to add a node, go to the Physics toolbar, no matter what operating system you are using. Subnodes are available by clicking the parent node and selecting it from the Attributes menu.
About the Edge Condition selections
The edge conditions available in the Electric Currents, Layered Shell Interface are applicable to exterior edges only. For shell interfaces, exterior means exterior to the boundary selection. In other words; an edge that is connected to adjacent boundaries, only on one side. Consequently, an edge can be regarded as interior (and therefore, not applicable), even though it is exterior to the domain that is enclosed by the shell boundary selection.
