Abstract :
In this paper we describe a low cost device that can be incorporated as a part of a CRT filter screen to indicate ground connection failure. This device can be used as an indicator to show the operator that the CRT filter screen has been properly grounded and is operational. It is based on a liquid crystal element that operates without external source of power.
