Product Code : SCL-EE-12468
The Magnetic Field Along Straight Conductor apparatus is a physics laboratory teaching apparatus used for demonstrating the magnetic field produced around a straight current-carrying conductor. It is intended for school physics laboratories, science teachers, students, and practical classroom demonstrations where direct observation helps explain the relationship between electric current and magnetism.
Product Description
This educational apparatus supports practical study of the circular magnetic field that forms around a straight conductor when electric current passes through it. Students can observe how field direction relates to current direction and connect the experiment with the right-hand thumb rule.
It is suitable for teacher-led demonstrations and supervised student practical work. The apparatus helps turn an abstract electromagnetism concept into an observable experiment and complements topics such as Oersted's experiment, magnetic field patterns, current direction, and electromagnetic effects.
Key Features
- Demonstrates the magnetic field produced by a straight current-carrying conductor.
- Supports observation of the circular field pattern around a conductor.
- Explains the relationship between current direction and magnetic field direction.
- Supports teaching of the right-hand thumb rule through practical observation.
- Suitable for school physics laboratories, classroom demonstrations, and supervised practical sessions.
- Can be used with related electricity and electromagnetism laboratory equipment.

How to Use the Magnetic Field Along Straight Conductor
- Place the apparatus on a stable laboratory bench and identify the straight conductor and terminals.
- Connect only the power source and accessories specified for the actual supplied unit.
- Position the appropriate magnetic-field indicator used for the experiment near the conductor.
- Pass current through the conductor briefly and observe the resulting field indication.
- Reverse the current direction, when permitted by the apparatus design, and observe the change in field direction.
- Relate the observation to the right-hand thumb rule and record the result.
Safety and handling note: Use under teacher or laboratory supervision. Do not exceed the confirmed electrical rating, avoid short circuits, disconnect power before changing connections, and do not leave the conductor energized longer than required.
Care & Maintenance
- Disconnect the apparatus after use and allow warmed parts to cool before handling.
- Keep terminals and connection points clean, dry, and free from corrosion.
- Store in a dry cabinet and protect delicate accessories from impact.
- Inspect leads and terminals before each practical session.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Magnetic Field Along Straight Conductor apparatus used for?
It is used to demonstrate that electric current flowing through a straight conductor produces a magnetic field around the conductor.
What shape is the magnetic field around a straight current-carrying conductor?
The magnetic field forms concentric circular paths around the straight conductor. Its direction depends on the direction of current flow.
What rule explains the direction of the magnetic field?
The right-hand thumb rule is used: point the right thumb in the direction of conventional current, and the curled fingers indicate the magnetic field direction.
Is this apparatus suitable for school physics laboratories?
Yes. It is suitable for school physics laboratories, teacher demonstrations, and supervised student practical sessions focused on electricity and magnetism.
Can students reverse the current direction during the experiment?
Current direction may be reversed when the apparatus design and power arrangement permit it. This helps demonstrate that reversing current reverses the magnetic field direction.
Are the material, dimensions, electrical rating, and kit contents confirmed?
No. Those details were not provided in the source data and should be confirmed before publication, quotation, or procurement.
