This is due to two independent effects known as the skin effect and the proximity effect. 　　If the conductor is considered to be composed of a large number of concentric circular elements, those at the centre of the conductor will be enveloped by a greater magnetic flux than those on the outside. Consequently the self-induced back e.m.f, will be greater towards the centre of the conductor, thus causing the current density to be less at the centre than at the conductor surface. This extra concentration at the surface is the skin effect and it results in an increase in the effective resistance of the conductor. The magnitude of the skin effect is influenced by the frequency, the size of the conductor, the amount of current flowing and the diameter of the conductor. It is of great
