Also, the feedback control circuit 5 and the output control means 6 are configured to delay the circuit and apply a low frequency vibration of 20 to 100 Hz (50 Hz in this embodiment) to the output of the secondary coil 3 .
According to the space potential generator 1 configured as described above, the transformer 5, the feedback control circuit 5, and the output control means 6 act to generate a weak current of a predetermined voltage in the output of the secondary coil 3, and , Since a low-frequency vibration is applied to the output of the secondary coil 3, the output is only one line of the terminal 3b and is not equipped with a ground electrode. A leakage current having a voltage of a predetermined frequency and a weak current occurs around the first release means 8 and the second release means 9, and a voltage of a predetermined frequency and a weak current (for example, voltage value 10 to 1000 V, current value An electric field with a range of 0.2 A to 0.002 A) is created. Since this electric field has a constant frequency, the charge propagates and spreads through space, forming an electric field having a voltage of a predetermined frequency and a weak current over a wide range.
