Lab Worker Handling Mouse in High-Voltage Area
The Bergische University in Wuppertal is opening its doors to the public for a series of exciting events as part of the "Türen auf!" initiative. These events, conducted by Prof. Dr.-Ing. Markus Zdrallek and his team, will take place at the High Voltage Laboratory, located within the Chair of Electrical Power Supply.
The High Voltage Laboratory is a unique facility that can generate electrical voltages over 1,000 times greater than a standard household socket. During the "Doors Open" day, visitors will have the opportunity to witness the insulator of a high-voltage line's resistance being tested by university staff. This test will demonstrate the insulator's failure point with a loud bang, providing a captivating and educational experience.
The "Doors Open" events are designed for children aged 10 and above, and each session lasts for 30 minutes. The events are scheduled to occur at 10, 11, 12, and 13 o'clock. "Türen auf!" invites children (and adults) to experience factual stories at all events.
To secure your spot, registration is required. You can register by sending an email to [email protected], specifying the preferred time for the event and the number of participants. It is important to note that each event is limited to 30 participants to ensure a personalised and engaging experience for all.
Unfortunately, there are no specific mentions in the available search results about which schools or institutions in Wuppertal, besides Bergische Universität, will participate in the "Türen auf!" days in 2023 to experience realistic stories with children and adults.
The "Doors Open" events at the High Voltage Laboratory are part of the "Türen auf!" initiative, an endeavour by WDR, launched in 2011 for the 40th birthday of the "Laugh and Learn" stories. The laboratory also utilises thermal imaging cameras to make electrical power visible, adding an extra layer of intrigue to the events.
Don't miss this unique opportunity to learn about high voltage in a fun and engaging way. Register now for the "Doors Open" events at the High Voltage Laboratory, which airs on Sundays at 11:30, similar to the popular "Sendung mit der Maus" show.
