The x=0 in the pictures at the side should be y=0. If the author or someone could fix this that would be great.

Thanx Noigmn

I'd really appreciate a description of the case in which we have more than one conductive surface

p.s. monday I have an electromagnetism exam and I can't find a description of this case :P

[edit] fixed

I have fixed the pictures so that they all now all say y=0.

the formula for the potential is in cylindrical coordinates where the distance from the infinite plane is measured along the z-axis. This would imply that the infinite plane is in the x-y plane but the picture has it in the x-z plane. This would be very confusing to someone who did not already understand the material.
