at the same potential its equilibrium is not affected; if, how-ever, there be a difference of potential between A and B, eachend of the needle, if its own potential be positive, is repelled 61-62] MEASUREMENT OF POTENTIAL 95 from the quadrants at high potential towards those at low,the needle… … Fig. 55. In practice the quadrants are doubled, a set being placedover as well as below the needle, the corresponding quadrantsbeing connected together, so that the needle is practicallyentirely surrounded and hangs in a kind of hollow box.
