Maxwell-like equations are offered that are valid not only for electromagnetic, but also for gravitational fields. They are based on an expanded form of the law of energy conversion, which explicitly takes into account the nonequilibrium of systems and the ability of energy to transfer from one energy carrier to another. This makes it possible to eliminate the distinction between electromechanics and the field theory, to find out the meaning of the magnetic vector potential as a function of the charge rotation speed, to reveal the tensor nature of the magnetic field and the presence of a divergent component of the scalar nature in it. The existence of the Lorentz magnetic forces and the presence of a work-performing moment therein are proved. Maxwell-like equations do not contain field operators and have a simpler form covering nevertheless a broader spectrum of phenomena due to taking into account the convective components of bias currents. Wave equations alternative to the Maxwell ones are offered and the non-electromagnetic nature of light is substantiated.
