A electric field exits wherever an electrical force acts on a charged particle. The magnitude of an electric field at a point is equal to the force that would act on a charge of 1C palced there. The direction of the field is the direction of the force on the charge. The unit of electric field is the newton/coulomb (N/C)
The electric field is zero everywhere inside the conductor. Of an isolated conductor carries a charge, the charge resides in its surface.
Electric potential is a scalar characteristic of an electric field, independent of the charge that may be placed in the field. However, when we speak of potential energy, we are referring to the charge-field system.
