A model of electric field distribution determined by the B sub Y component of the interplanetary magnetic field is developed. It is shown that this model agrees well with experimental data for the polar cap and cusp regions; this agreement provides support for the adequacy of Uvarov's (1979, 1981) longitudinal-current closure hypothesis. Furthermore, the total screening of the auroral and midlatitude ionosphere from electric fields determined by the B sub Y component observed during equinox conditions is found to correspond with the accepted symmetry in the distribution of conductivity and regions of localization of high-latitude longitudinal currents.
