It is called an electroscope.
A static electric charge can be detected directly by a device called an Ishmoo. It has a plate on top and a plate inside. The inside plate moves a mirror and it reflects a light slit onto the meter face and reads out static voltage. A standard electric voltage meter today, A VOM, would have an attenuator switch and read out digitally.

What is the device that detects electric charges?
an electroscope
When an observer moves past a stationary electric charge she detects?
Love and what not love love will keep you together with the earth
What is an electronic device use to stow electric charge?
trnsistor
What is under current relays?
A device that disconnects a circuit when ever it detects the electric current is lower than the rated current.
Why does light comes on by itself?
One that is controlled by a Photo-Electric device that detects darkness OR One that is controlled by a Clock Timer.
What does electro-explosive device mean?
An Electro Explosive device is a bomb that is triggered by an electric charge.
What type of instrument can detect the presence of an electrical charge?
a gold leaf electroscope. if initially charged negatively, the deflection of the leaf with respect to the electroscope is increased if a negatively charged object approaches the electroscope. conversely if a positively charged object approaches, the deflection is reduced. the angle of deflection is proportional to the magnitude of the charge.
What is a device used to store charge?
A capacitor stores an electric charge. An inductor stores a magnetic charge.
What is olfactory sensing device?
A device that detects odors, such as your nose.
What is a defibulater?
It a device that sends an electric charge to restart a persons heart after it stops beating.
What is a capacitance?
capacitanceis the ability of a body to store charge in anelectric field. Capacitance is also a measure of the amount of electric potential energy stored (or separated) for a given electric potential.AnswerA capacitor is a device that will store electrical energy. This energy is stored in its electric field. This is achieved by separating the charge on its plates -contrary to popular belief, it does not store that charge, as the net charge remains the same after charging as it was before charging.
What is the name of the device that detects airplanes in airports?
Radar
