 This demo has a ground fault. Anything metal and in contact with the probe or the base should be assumed to be at high voltage. Use a ruler to turn the machine on or off to avoid a nasty shock. Be conscious of what the demo is sitting on- some floors have conductive runners underneath them which may transmit a shock to your feet. This demo has a ground fault.

-This demonstration works well with a variety of others to demonstrate the effects of high voltage.+This demonstration works well with a variety of others to demonstrate the effects of high voltage. A fluorescent bulb (mounted on the end of an insulating handle) can be used; when brought close to the probe it'll light up. This demo may also be used with the [[:​demonstrations:​5_electricity_and_magnetism:​5b_electric_fields_and_potential:​faraday_cage:​start|]].
