A Wien Bridge oscillator comprises an amplifier (IC1) with an inverting feed-back loop formed by a potentiometer P1 and a resistor R3, and a non-inverting feed-back loop formed by resistors R1 and R2, and a capacitor C1. A sensor wire 20, which has a capacitance Ccab to earth is connected via a coupling capacitor Cc and a switch S1 to the non-inverting feed-back loop. The capacitance Ch symbolises the change in the capacitance of the sensor wire caused by the presence of a human body near the wire. The change causes the oscillator to stop oscillating.
