Electric Field basically tells the region around a charge where its effect can be felt.

Explanation:

#1)# Electric field lines are always drawn from High potential to
low potential.

#2)# Two electric field lines can never intersect each other.

#3)# The net electric field inside a Conductor is Zero.

#4)# Electric field line from a positive charge is drawn radially outwards and from a negative charge radially inwards.

#5)# The density of electric field lines tells the strength of the electric field at that region.

#6)# Electric field lines terminate Perpendicularly to the surface of a conductor.
