Disclosed herein is a structure for preventing current from leaking out of devices such as a valve, an intermediate reservoir, etc., which are employed in an electrostatic spray coating apparatus for applying a desired voltage to electrically conductive paint so as to electrostatically spray-coat a workpiece therewith. The current-leakage prevention structure basically comprises any one of the devices each made of an electrically-conductive material, a container made of an insulating material, w...
