Abstract	The paper describes cases of observations of narrow energy spectrum electron flows up to 500 eV on the INTERBALL Tail Probe. About 30 events were registered in 1996 on the night side of the Earth predominantly in 03h–06h local time sector. Quasimonochromatic electrons (QME) were registered by all 8 spectrometer channels oriented along the spacecraft meridian with angles of the field of view centers relative to sunward direction from 11° to 169°. Quasimonochromatic electrons were observed simultaneously with large fluxes of high temperature magnetospheric electrons. The dependences of QME energy on both fluxes and energy of high-energy magnetospheric electrons were observed in every event. The ratio of full width at half height (FWHH) to mean energy of QME was ~20%. This electron component with quasimonochromatic energy probably was originated on the spacecraft surface. The registered energy of QME was apparently due to difference of potentials between spacecraft surface from which electron beam originated and the location of electron spectrometer.
