Abstract: Based on the familiar magnetic field expression of one section current,the x,y,z components of magnetic field for one section current are derived. Then,using this component expression,we get the magnetic field space distribution of the arbitrary quadrilateral electric current and discuss the special cases of rectangular current and square current.

Key words: quadrilateral electric current, piecewise calculations, magnetic field distribution
