Hendrik,
in mf you cannot apply an electric potential boundary condition, so ground is not an option.
Cheers

Hi Edgar,
thank you for the reply. Alright.
I simply want to simulate a piece of conductor with 2 coils around it. I can easily define a current through the coils via the option "coil", but I also want to define a current through the piece of conductor. In the mef-package I could do it with a terminal on one side and ground on the other. Do you know how I can apply a current in the piece of conductor in the mf package?
Thank you and kind regards,
Hendrik

Hendrik,
you can use the piece of metal as a coil as well. A coil in Comsol doesn't need to look like a typical helical coil. Also it doesn't need to be a closed loop if you guide the terminal ends to an outside boundary of the model. Check the documentation about the requirements for coils.
