United Scientific® Equipotential Trough Kit – Plot Electric Field Lines & Study Voltage Potential Differences
-
Hands-on kit for mapping electric fields and equipotential lines
Includes electrodes, multimeter, electrolyte trough, and activity guide
Supports NGSS-aligned lessons (MS-PS2-5 & HS-PS2-4)
Simple yet effective setup ideal for classroom demonstrations
Enhances student understanding of voltage and potential difference
The United Scientific® Equipotential Trough Kit is a complete hands-on learning tool designed for visualizing electric fields and plotting equipotential lines in various electrode configurations. Ideal for middle school, high school, and college physics labs, this kit demonstrates electric potential between two electrodes submerged in an electrolyte solution. When connected to a power source, a small current flows, allowing students to map the resulting electric field using the included multimeter. The experiment aligns with NGSS standards MS-PS2-5 and HS-PS2-4, making it perfect for curriculum-based instruction. Comes complete with an activity guide to support inquiry-based learning.
