Electrostatic Accessories

Electrostatic Accessories are the little gadgets that let you do things with your electrostatic generator. We have given some of the major accessories (like Leyden jars) a category of their own. This category is a sort of a catchall, where we put discharge devices (that carry charge from here to there), devices for collecting and holding charge, and insulating devices to keep the charge where we want it. Here, also, are the carrying cases we put everything else in.

A6.1 discharge devices
A6.1.1 discharge rods, directors
A6.1.2 universal discharger (with platform)
A6.1.3 discharge tongs
A6.1.4 corona discharge brushes
A6.1.5 adjustable-gap director
A6.2 charge collectors
A6.2.1 main terminals (without generators)
A6.2.2 charge spheres
A6.3 insulating devices
A6.3.1 insulating stools and platforms
A6.3.2 insulating supports
