Techniquest in Cardiff (UK) have an unattended plasma globe and we are
about to put a giant lightning tube onto their floor too so I'd
recommend speaking to them.

Good morning!

We are looking to hear from other institutions that currently have, or
have had large plasma globes or plasma tubes unfacilitated on the floor
of their institutions. We have looked through the ASTC archives and have
seen some of the conversations around plasma balls, but none talk
specifically about signage or warnings (It a discussion like that exists
and you can point us to it we would be very appreciative)

We we are curious to know what sort of signage/language you have seen
used to explain the possibility of getting shocked, as well as to warn
individuals who might be sensitive to EMR (I.e. pacemakers).

Many thanks
