Abstract
The relation between the exact theory and Carson's theory for the fields of straight wires above a homogeneous earth is derived. Sufficient conditions for the validity of Carson's equations are given. Cases for which Carson's theory is not valid are discussed. In addition, an image theory useful for magnetic induction problems is given and discussed.Keywords
