Abstract
The structure of the direct electrical current in a conductor is discussed neither in the educa-tional nor scientific literature. This problem is directly related to the boundary condition for thenormal component of current density. The generally accepted approach to this problem requiresmore careful consideration. The following article is devoted to the analysis of the direct current dis-tribution in a conductor. In this paper, we consider two mutually exclusive approaches to explainthe structure of direct current in a conductor.
