PURPOSE: To demonstrate magnetic induction with 110 VAC.

DESCRIPTION: Closing the switch puts 110 VAC on the primary coil, which is coupled to the secondary coil (on top) by a ferromagnetic core. The induced current in the secondary coil lights the 110 VAC light bulb.

SUGGESTIONS: For safety, the ground fault protection device is used with thius demonstration.
