AB  - In this study, features of the Field Aligned Currents (FACs) distribution in the plasma sheet boundary layer are investigated. The current is calculated with the 4-point measurement of FluxGate Magnetometer (FGM) on board the Cluster in the period of July to October 2001. There are 172 FAC cases/events chosen for statistics. The results show that spatial distribution of the FAC has asymmetry in several aspects. The FACs occurrence is mainly Earthward in dawn side and is mainly tailward in dusk side. The FACs occurrence also has south-north hemisphere asymmetry.
