It is just a spell that you cast and it goes off at certain time intervals. If there are enemies nearby it will hit them if not it just dissipates harmlessly. Very easy to use but if you are not close enough to enemies or watching the text screen it is easy enough to think that it does nothing.

"Static Charge is similar to Call Lightning except it can be used indoors. Upon completion of this spell an enemy creature within the area of effect is fried by a static discharge for 1d8 electricity damage per caster level, to a maximum of 16d8 electricity damage. Once released the static charge will build up again on the caster, discharging once per turn for the duration of the spell. "

It works exactly as the description says. Only thing is if there are no enemies nearby you may not realize that it is working.
