An indicator to show the actual frequency of a mains electricity source operating at nomimal 50 Hz.
A row of metal reeds with white flags on their end sits in the oscillating magnetic field produced by two coils. Each reed is weighted to oscillate naturally at a different frequency and when driven by the magnetic field the resonant one has a larger amplitude that is visible in the front panel.
