Ø  Educational Level: School, Undergraduate (B.Sc.), Physics Laboratory

Ø  Base Material: Plastic Base

Ø  Base Colour: Yellow

Ø  Conductor Material: Polished Stainless-Steel Wire

Ø  Terminal Connectors: 2 Binding Posts (Red & Black)

Ø  Terminal Type : 4 mm Banana Socket / Binding Terminal

Ø  Support Rod Material Aluminium Alloy

Ø  Needle Support: Brass Pivot Point

Ø  Experiment Demonstrates: Deflection of magnetic needle due to current-carrying conductor

Ø  Current Supply Requirement: Low Voltage DC Supply (0–6 V or equivalent laboratory power source)

Ø  Mounting Type: Table-top Laboratory Model

Ø  Operating Principle     Magnetic field produced around a current-carrying conductor

Ø  Applications: Physics Teaching, Demonstration Experiments, Laboratory Practical Work

Ø  Verification of Oersted's Law

When electric current passes through the conductor, the magnetic needle placed at the centre experiences a deflection, proving that an electric current produces a magnetic field around the conductor.
