Effects of electric boundary conditions on electroelastic field in a cracked piezoelectric strip are examined. Attention is focussed on an antiplane shear central crack normal to the strip surfaces. By decoupling equations and using the conformal mapping technique, expressions for electroelastic field in the piezoelectric strip are determined under the assumptions of an impermeable, permeable, or conducting crack, respectively. Comparison for the singularity near the crack tips among the obtained electroelastic fields is made.
