All,
There's a bit of a debate going on over in uk.d-i-y about ac line
(mains) voltage being induced into unterminated adjacent wires.
We've split into 2 camps, some of us are saying that the inductive
coupling of the AC is inducing a low AC current into the unterminated
(i.e. 'floating') line.
The others are saying this is capacitive coupling due to the metres of
dielectric that separate the two wires.
Can one of the AC Current theorists on here, please debunk either or
both theories with some reasonably technical mumbo jumbo to back it
up.
Thanks in advance
Paul.
