The total ponderomotive force which moves for example rainwater droplets on outdoor high‐voltage insulators [1, 2], is given as a series of inhomogeneity indicators of the undisturbed electric field in the case of a round conductive and uncharged test body. The series expansion enables us to approximate the total ponderomotive force at an arbitrary position with a single numerical solution of the boundary‐value problem for the undisturbed electric potential in absence of any droplet.
