Ampère's Law

Product Code : SCL-EI-10704

Lab Glassware Manufacturer, based in Ambala, Haryana, and manufacturing scientific and educational laboratory equipment since 1982, supplies the Ampère's Law Apparatus to physics departments, STEM laboratories, and procurement teams across India and export markets including Nepal, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, and Bhutan, serving the wider South Asian region. This apparatus is used to demonstrate the relationship between electric current and magnetic field around conductors, coils, and closed-loop paths in school and college physics laboratories.

Quick Answer: The Ampère's Law Apparatus is a low-voltage, current-limited demonstration set that lets students trace magnetic-field direction and strength around straight conductors, loops, and coils using a compass, field probe, or sensor, connecting Ampère's law theory to measurable classroom observations.

The Ampère's Law Apparatus from Lab Glassware Manufacturer is designed for electricity and magnetism practicals where students study how current produces a surrounding magnetic field. It can support demonstrations involving straight conductors, circular loops, coils, solenoids, magnetic compasses, probes, and suitable measuring instruments. This product belongs to the physics lab equipment category and is intended for supervised educational use. The exact conductor layout, coil turns, current rating, power source, magnetic-field sensor, scale arrangement, and supplied accessories should be confirmed with Lab Glassware Manufacturer before final quotation, since Ampère's law apparatus designs vary by syllabus and experiment method.

Key Features

• Electromagnetism teaching aid: Supports practical lessons on current, field direction, and magnetic-field strength.
• Useful for field mapping: Can support observations around straight wires, loops, and coils where supplied.
• Compatible with instruments: Can be used with suitable meters, probes, sensors, and electronic instruments.
• Hands-on classroom value: Helps students compare theory with practical magnetic-field observations.
• Reusable lab apparatus: Suitable for repeated school and college practical sessions when handled correctly.

What's Included in the Kit

• 1 × Ampère's Law apparatus main unit
• Conductors, coils, loop frame, or solenoid assembly
• Connecting leads, terminals, or sockets
• Compass, field probe, sensor, or measuring accessory
• Instruction sheet or experiment guide

Applications / Uses

• Demonstrating the magnetic field around a current-carrying conductor.
• Showing magnetic-field direction using a compass or field sensor.
• Studying the effect of current on magnetic-field strength.
• Comparing field behaviour around straight wires, loops, and coils where supplied.
• Using with compatible meters, power supplies, and general lab equipment.
• Supporting STEM lessons on electromagnetism, current, and field mapping.

How to Use the Ampère's Law Apparatus

• Place the apparatus on a stable, dry laboratory bench.
• Check all conductors, coils, terminals, and leads for visible damage.
• Connect the apparatus only to a suitable low-voltage, current-limited power source.
• Place the compass, field probe, or sensor at the required test position.
• Increase current gradually and observe the magnetic-field direction or reading.
• Record readings at different current values or positions, then switch off before changing connections.

Safety note: Do not connect the Ampère's Law Apparatus directly to mains electricity. Use only the confirmed current rating, prevent conductor overheating, and use suitable safety protective wears during broader electrical demonstrations.

Care & Maintenance

• Store conductors, coils, and leads in a dry cabinet after use.
• Keep terminals clean and free from corrosion for reliable electrical contact.
• Do not overload coils or conductors beyond the confirmed current rating.
• Replace damaged insulation, loose terminals, or overheated components before reuse.

Building a Complete Current-and-Magnetism Demonstration Set

Ampère's law demonstrations are often taught alongside related current-and-field experiments. Lab Glassware Manufacturer's Oersted Rectangular Coil Setup demonstrates the same current-magnetic field relationship from the historical Oersted experiment angle, while the Circular Coil, 1 Turn and Coil with 5 Turns let students build up the same field-mapping exercise with a fixed, countable winding. For quantifying the force between current-carrying conductors as a follow-on topic, the Current Balance is a natural next step. Confirm current ratings and accessory compatibility with Lab Glassware Manufacturer if these items are intended to be used together in one teaching sequence.
