the "Biot–Savart law for a point charge" due to its close resemblance to the standard Biot–Savart law. However, this language is misleading as the Biot–Savart law applies only to steady currents and a point charge moving in space does not constitute a steady current.

The electric current equation can be viewed as a convective current of electric charge that involves linear motion. By analogy, the magnetic equation is an inductive current involving spin. There is no linear motion in the inductive current along the direction of the

However, the law also applies to infinitely long wires (this concept was used in the definition of the SI unit of electric current—the 1151: 2014: 2003:

Holding that point fixed, the line integral over the path of the electric current is calculated to find the total magnetic field at that point.
