The kinetic equation for electrons in a polycrystalline metal is considered. A kinetic equation is written that describes in a unified manner the scattering of conduction electrons both by impurities or phonons and by grain boundaries. This kinetic equation takes into account the scattering of electrons at the boundaries of crystallites of a polycrystalline metal An expression is obtained for the bulk conductivity in the general case. Let us analyze the effect of electron scattering at grain boundaries on its electrical properties.
