Conductor spheres (two pcs)
Product Code : SCL-EI-10713
Lab Glassware Manufacturer, an Ambala, Haryana-based laboratory and scientific equipment manufacturer and exporter since 1982, supplies the Conductor Spheres (2 Pcs.) electrostatics demonstration accessory to schools, colleges and STEM laboratories across India, and exports to markets including Vietnam, Thailand, Indonesia and the Philippines as part of its Southeast Asia physics-lab equipment supply.
Quick answer: Conductor Spheres (2 Pcs.) are a pair of spherical conducting bodies used in school and college physics laboratories to demonstrate electrostatic charge transfer by contact, electrostatic induction, charge distribution on a conducting surface, and attraction or repulsion between charged bodies. The set is intended for supervised, low-energy classroom electrostatics work alongside a compatible electroscope, proof plane or charge source — sphere diameter, material, finish, mounting arrangement and included accessories should be confirmed with Lab Glassware Manufacturer before ordering.

Key Features
- Set of two conductor spheres: enables paired demonstrations of charge transfer, induction and electrostatic interaction.
- Spherical conductor form: makes surface charge distribution on conductors easy to observe and teach.
- Supports charge-sharing experiments: lets students observe how charge transfers between two conductive bodies.
- Compatible with electrostatics setups: can be used with approved electroscopes, proof planes, charge sources and other electronic instruments.
- Classroom demonstration value: converts abstract electrostatic theory into direct, visible observation.
- Reusable lab accessory: suitable for repeated school and college physics practicals when handled correctly.
- Safety-focused use: built for supervised, low-energy electrostatics demonstrations only.
What's Included in the Kit
- 2 × conductor spheres
- Insulated stands, rods, or holders
- Connecting lead or contact accessory
- Instruction sheet or experiment guide
Applications / Uses
- Demonstrating charging by contact between two conductors.
- Showing electrostatic induction using a charged rod or nearby conductor.
- Explaining charge distribution on spherical conducting surfaces.
- Observing attraction and repulsion between charged bodies.
- Working alongside electroscopes, proof planes, charge sources, and general lab equipment.
- Supporting school and college electrostatics practicals.
How to Use the Conductor Spheres (2 Pcs.)
- Place both conductor spheres on a clean, dry, insulated surface or compatible stands.
- Discharge the spheres before starting the experiment, following the teacher's procedure.
- Charge one sphere using an approved electrostatic source or charged rod.
- Bring the second sphere near the charged sphere to demonstrate induction or contact transfer.
- Use an electroscope, proof plane, or detector to observe charge presence or transfer.
- Discharge both spheres safely after the practical and return them to storage.
Safety note: Use the conductor spheres only for low-energy classroom electrostatics. Never connect them to mains electricity or unapproved high-voltage sources, and use suitable safety protective wear during broader laboratory demonstrations.
Care & Maintenance
- Wipe the spheres with a clean, dry, lint-free cloth after use.
- Store in a dry cabinet away from moisture and corrosive chemicals.
- Avoid dents, scratches, or deformation of the spherical conducting surface.
- Check insulated supports, terminals, and contact surfaces before each practical session.
Building a Complete Electrostatics Charge-and-Detection Station
Conductor Spheres (2 Pcs.) work well alongside other pieces from Lab Glassware Manufacturer's electrostatics range. Where this set demonstrates charge transfer and sharing between two conducting bodies, the single conductor ball offers a simpler starting point for basic induction demonstrations, while an electrometer or coulombmeter lets students move from qualitative observation to a quantitative reading of the charge involved. Schools building a complete electrostatics station typically pair the spheres with a charge source, a detection instrument, and a field-mapping accessory such as the electric field lines apparatus — confirm exact combinations and included accessories with Lab Glassware Manufacturer before ordering a bundled set.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are Conductor Spheres (2 Pcs.) used for?
They demonstrate electrostatic charge transfer by contact, induction, charge sharing, charge distribution, and attraction/repulsion between conducting bodies in physics teaching labs.
Why are the spheres conductive?
A conductive material lets electric charge move freely across the surface, which is what makes visible charge-distribution and transfer demonstrations possible.
Are these suitable for school physics labs?
Yes. They are intended for supervised school and college physics laboratories when used with approved electrostatics accessories.
Do the spheres come with insulated stands?
The supplied product data does not confirm whether stands, rods, holders, or connecting accessories are included — confirm this with Lab Glassware Manufacturer before ordering.
Can the spheres be used with an electroscope?
Yes, they can be used with a compatible electroscope or proof plane to observe charge transfer and electrostatic effects.
What should be confirmed before requesting a quotation?
Sphere diameter, material, finish, mounting arrangement, included accessories, and any tender compliance documentation required for the order.
