ESDA stands for :

  • A.Electronic Static Detection Appliance
  • B.Electrostatic Detection Apparatus
  • C.Electric System for Detection of Alteration
  • D.Electronic System for Detection of Alteration

Answer: B

ESDA stands for Electrostatic Detection Apparatus.

The ESDA reveals indented writing, the impressions left on a sheet that lay under the page being written on. The document is covered with a thin plastic film and charged with a corona wand, and toner applied to the film collects in the indentations, making the invisible writing readable. It is a standard instrument in questioned document examination.

The other expansions are invented. The instrument does not detect alterations as such; it detects indentations through electrostatic charge.
