Received  February 2010 Revised  May 2010 Published  December 2010

This paper deals with a generally nonlinear mixed-type initial-boundary value problem for the description of the electromagnetic field in a conducting medium that is surrounded by an insulating medium with a high dielectric permittivity. The main goals are the existence, uniqueness and the asymptotic behavior of the solutions to this system.
