I think lots of TC's get made for science fairs.  For those looking for a
nominal set of rules and such, the Greater San Diego Science and
Engineering Fair (a fairly large one, hundreds of exhibits) has posted
their rules, along with all the various regulatory forms, on the web.

Of particular interest will be the rules and regs and the "Certificate of
Hazards Control".  Most of them deal with various biological hazards,
vertebrate animal restrictions, and human subjects, which probably won't be
relevant, but there are specific things about HV, what can be displayed, etc.

Some forethought and planning might avoid a last minute crisis (hah...
there are always last minute problems that crop up)
