Inside the capacitor, there is only displacement current, and outside there is only conduction current.
Inside the capacitor, there is only conduction current, and outside there is only displacement current.
Both inside and outside the capacitor, conduction current is present, but displacement current is absent.
Both inside and outside the capacitor, displacement current is present, but conduction current is absent.
