Description

The gold leaf electroscope detects and measures static electricity or voltage. It measures the presence and magnitude of electric charge on a body for demonstrating electrostatics.

A metal disc is attached to a metal plate, and a thin piece of gold leaf is attached to the plate. The whole of this section of the electroscope is insulated from the body of the instrument. A glass-front avoids air draught and yet, it helps us to track the leaf's behaviour. When a charge is placed on top of the disc, it spreads to the plate and to the leaf. As a result, they will have the same charge.

This gold leaf electroscope has a very robust steel-framed box.
