Sumario:Expressions for the electrostatic field of a point charge in an infinite plane condenser comprising one or three homogeneous isolating parallel dielectric layers are presented. These solutions are essential for detector physics simulations of Parallel Plate Chambers (PPCs) and Resistive Plate Chambers (RPCs). In addition, expressions for the weighting field of a strip electrode are presented which allow calculation of induced signals and crosstalk in these detectors. A detailed discussion of the derivation of these solutions can be found in \cite{schnizer}.
