Message: [QUOTE="Pushin50, post: 1242474, member: 74325"] Faraday's Law relates the electric field in a coil (loops) of wire to the changing electric field in a current carrying wire near the coil. The voltage current and energy in the coil is determined by the number of turns in the coil (meter) and the rate of change of the electric field in the current carrying wire (spark wire). The rate of change in the spark wire is very high so the potential for energy loss is there.However, the number of turns of the coil is so small that almost no energy will be generated in the coil and it should have no effect on the spark energy. It would take hundreds or thousands of turns of the coil wire to draw significant energy from the spark wire. [/QUOTE]
