Electrostatic Investigation
Electrostatic Investigation (Product Code: SLE/PHY/169) is a static electricity kit used to explore attraction and repulsion between charged objects in school science and physics lessons. It brings together various friction rods and fabrics with a pith ball suspended from a support, so students can charge a rod and watch the ball respond. The kit is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

What Is the Electrostatic Investigation Kit Used For?
Students rub a rod with one of the fabrics and bring it close to the hanging pith ball. At first the ball is pulled towards the rod; once it touches, it shares the rod's charge and is pushed away. Repeating this with different rod and fabric pairs lets a class compare which combinations charge best, making the set a simple physics experiment kit for school electrostatics topics.
Clear results depend on dry conditions, so run the activity away from open windows on humid days and wipe the rods clean before use. The individual rods and fabrics are not itemised, so confirm the kit contents with us if your syllabus names particular materials.
What to Specify When Ordering
- The number of kits for your student groups.
- Any specific rod or fabric materials your syllabus requires, so we can confirm them against the kit contents.
- An electroscope, if you also want to detect and compare charge with a scale.
OEM Manufacturer
This kit comes from Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which trades as ScienceLab and acts as the OEM for its educational apparatus. The company makes its products at its own licensed factory in Saha, Ambala, Haryana, and deals directly with schools, training institutes, dealers and importers, so quotations and follow-up questions are answered by the maker itself. Read the company profile for background.

Extend the kit with extra charging materials and a way to measure charge:
- Friction Cloth, Cotton — extra cotton cloths so more groups can rub rods at once.
- Friction Rod, Perspex — acrylic rod for comparing charging behaviour.
- Friction Rod, Nylon — synthetic rod to widen the range of materials tested.
- Electroscope, Gold Leaf — shows the charge picked up from the rods on a deflection scale.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is included in the Electrostatic Investigation kit?
The Electrostatic Investigation kit contains various friction rods and fabrics for electrostatic experiments, plus a pith ball suspended from a support. The exact rod and fabric types are not itemised, so ask us to confirm the list before ordering.
What does the Electrostatic Investigation kit demonstrate?
The Electrostatic Investigation kit demonstrates attraction and repulsion. A charged rod first attracts the suspended pith ball; once the ball touches the rod and shares its charge, the two repel, showing clearly that like charges push apart.
Which classes can use the Electrostatic Investigation kit?
The Electrostatic Investigation kit suits middle and secondary school science, where static electricity is first introduced, and it also works as a quick warm-up demonstration in higher classes before moving on to electroscopes and Van de Graaff generator experiments.
Why does the pith ball sometimes fail to move?
Humidity is the usual reason: moist air lets charge leak from the rods of the Electrostatic Investigation kit before it reaches the pith ball. Work in a dry room, keep the rods clean and rub them briskly for a clear response.
Who makes the Electrostatic Investigation kit?
The Electrostatic Investigation kit is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, Haryana, India, and it is supplied factory-direct to schools, dealers and importers.
