Induction
1.conduction is a process of charging of a neutral body with a charged body by a direct contact with it. Induction is the process of charging a neutral body with a charged body without making any direct contact.
2.In conduction, charge developed is same as the charge on the external body. In induction, charge developed is opposite as the charge on the external body.
3. In conduction two bodies actually touch each other. In induction there is no physical contact between the two bodies.
