Equivalence principle in classical electrodynamics

Abstract

The principle of equivalence in gravitational physics and its mathematical base are reviewed. It is demonstrated how this principle can be realized in classical electrodynamis. In general, it is valid at any given single point or along a path without selfintersections unless the field considered satisfies some conditions.
