Abstract: Various expressions for the field strenghs of an accelerated monopole are given. In the integral form, we disscuss the potentials for static, uniformly moving and accelerated monopoles. In the static case, we obtain the Wu-Yang Potential. In the case of constant velocity we obtain a potential which can also be obtained through Lorentz transformation from the Wu-Yang Potential. However, for an accelerated monopole, the correct potential cannot be obtained through Lorentz transformation. On the contrary, the correct Lienard-Wiechert Potential of an accelerated electron can be obtained through Lorentz transformation.
