Depends on what kind of current it is. Direct Current (D.C) runs in a straight line and can be simply controlled with a switch, it also takes the shortest route. Alternating Current (A.C) moves back and forth until it is converted and can be controlled using a National gid panel (or similer) and Transformers.

Electric Field intensity can be defined by V/d, where V is the voltage between two plates and d is the distance between them. This works only for a uniform field between two plates. So a bigger V and smaller d will increase Electric Field Strength With a point charge, E is defined as k*(q/(r^2)) and so to increase E, charge could be increased (q). E is stronger as r decreases. I hope you found this answer usefull

Electrical current can be changed using a variable resistor. A resistor can be selected to allow a certain current at a specific voltage. Ohms' Law.
