The Enskog–Landau kinetic equation for dense many–component systems of hard charged spheres is considered. Using the standard Chapman–Enskog method the normal solution to this equation in the first approximation is found. Numerical calculations for two– and three–component mixtures of neutral and charged particles are carried out on the basis of the found expressions for transfer coefficients. Some of the results are compared with the available experimental data.
