Skin Effect DefinedSkin effect in transmission lines is the phenomenon where AC current concentrates near the conductor’s surface, increasing its effective resistance.Skin effect is defined as the tendency of an AC current to distribute unevenly over the cross-section of a conductor, such that the current density is highest near the surface of the skin of the conductor and decreases exponentially towards the core. This means that the inner part of the conductor carries less current than the oute
