Got it. Bottom line is this works both ways in the real world. I've applied signal using a coil (12" diameter) placed directly above and inline with a conductive line as well as via a parallel running line. I'm trying to get an idea of how the amount of signal transferred is different using...

Not worried about eddy currents. This is in relation to utility locators and fairly low frequency AC signals. The eddy currents don't seem to play a role in real world use.

Needing a bit of help here. I am trying to transfer an AC signal to a straight conductor via induction. I am trying to quantify the difference in amount of transferred signal (amps) when the source of the signal is a small coil versus a parallel running straight conductor. I am thinking its...
