  • If electricity flows through an electrical conductor, the following can be observed:
  • Magnetic needles are deflected.
  • If you follow the north pole of the compass needles, you can see the course of the magnetic field lines.
  • The magnetic field lines indicate how the magnetic force works.
  • The lines are circular and surround the entire wire.
  • If the current flows in the other direction, the magnetic field is also turned the other way.
  • Perpendicular to the conductor, the magnetic field is the same everywhere.
  • If you move the conductor, the magnetic field moves with it.
