    Summary: We study a free interface problem of finding the optimal energy configuration for mixtures of two conducting materials with an additional perimeter penalization of the interface. We employ the regularity theory of linear elliptic equations to study the possible opening angles of Taylor cones and to give a different proof of a partial regularity result by \textit{F. H. Lin} [Calc. Var. Partial Differ. Equ. 1, No. 2, 149--168 (1993; Zbl 0794.49038)].
