An electrical conductor (11) through which alternating current or varying direct current may pass is formed with slits or slots (15, 16), preferably in the direction of current flow, to prevent build-up of eddy currents. Such eddy currents tend to generate magnetic fields which would interfere with the primary fields that are created by the primary current and are responsible for back emf in the circuit. The conductors can be employed as plates (11) in capacitors (10), as electrodes (21) in electric cells (20), as tracks (31) in printed circuit boards (30), and as conductive casings or linings (40). |
