 Gauge-invariant Maxwell stress-energy tensor

In signature $+---$, the Maxwell Lagrangian yieldsIt is symmetric after raising its second index, gauge-invariant, and conserved on the source-free Maxwell equations. Its energy density is $\frac{1}{2}({\mathbf{E}}^2+{\mathbf{B}}^2)$ and its energy flux is the Poynting vector. Its difference from the canonical stress-energy tensor is an antisymmetric superpotential divergence plus an equation-of-motion term, so integrated charges coincide when the constraints and vanishing boundary terms are imposed.
