Analysis of the test results:
We adopted the same steps that we adopted in the previous test,
with the difference that we put rubber on the disc to secure the insulation and left the hole and what is adjacent to it by 2 centimeters without isolating them,
and we provided the cylinder with black silicon to prevent any leakage of electrons from it.
When we gave tungsten 6 v, we noticed that we still had electrons leaking from the cylindre, and although the electrons did not penetrate the disc hole,
this time we came close to breaching it, as they directed the electrons around the 2 centimeters left around the hole;
However, there is still another direction of electrons around the edges of the Plaque, which indicates that there is a problem remaining in the issue of insulation.
