The break or interrupter is an important part of the apparatusof the induction coil. It may be made on various plans, of whichthe simplest is that of the so-called vibrating hammer, A thinpiece of steel armed at one end with a heavy piece of iron is fixedon the base, so that the head of the hammer is exactly oppositethe centre of one end of the soft iron core, at a distance of about-§■ inch. Fixed in the centre of the hammer, on the face awayfrom the core, is a piece of thick platinum wire, and opposite this,on a stout piece of brass fastened to the base, is a screw carryingin its point another piece of platinum.

There must be an arrangement for adjusting the dis-tance of the hammer from the iron core, and this has been pro-
