Dec 30, 2017 at 19:30 comment added freecharly In this case the outer conductor is not a shield conductor on which charges are being induced on its outside. The outer conductor is held at a different potential than the inner conductor or semiconductor so that charges are induced on the inside of the outer conductor and the outside of the (semi)conductor. The situation is completely analogous to a parallel plate or coaxial capacitor
