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

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

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

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

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

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

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