Answer:
Actually, electric potential decreases as you move farther from a charge distribution. ... In the same way, as you do work on a charge to move it closer to another charge of the same sign, you increase the electric potential energy.
Explanation:
A rule of thumb for deciding whether or not EPE is increasing: If a charge is moving in the direction that it would normally move, its electric potential energy is decreasing. If a charge is moved in a direction opposite to that of it would normally move, its electric potential energy is increasing.
