Barižs' Law

Barižs' Law states that when a large, uniform electrical current flows through a conductor, it tends to concentrate and intensify around points where the conductor's cross-sectional area is smaller or where irregularities, such as edges or corners, exist. This means that these areas experience higher current density, increasing the risk of localized heating or electrical failure. In practical terms, designing conductors and components with smooth, uniform surfaces helps distribute current evenly, reducing hotspots and enhancing safety and reliability in electrical systems.
