It is increasingly being realized that by affecting geoeffective scale lengths the interplanetary electric field (IEF) is a key quantity in space weather discussions. In this work we derive and analyze statistically IEF coherence lengths in year 2000, i.e., near maximum of solar cycle 23, working in a much used formulation for the IEF. We focus on the frequency domain. We use magnetic field and plasma data sets acquired by Wind and ACE. During year 2000, ACE-Wind separations were very variable and, in particular, Wind's first dayside distant prograde orbit resulted in a Y-separation comparable to the X-separation (~220 RE). We find IEF coherence lengths of 200-250 RE (X) and 50-100 RE (Y). The coherence is mainly carried by the low frequency components (f < 0.01 min-1).
