I dont know where I am at, but I am dealing with the guys with the electric
shock guns that you have to sneak by. They are Red and are almost human.
Anyway I come to a room with an electric globe in the middle and when you enter there is a arm that extends to you. But I can not get to the other side,
and I think the arm needs to be activated to swing around the room. Hopefully this is enough info to help you know where I am. Please help.
Thank you.

I am in the prison, before this I was in and out of the prison cells going up and down different levels or floors. Then you come up to this area, with like
a purple background, and purple liquid on the floor. When you come to the room where I am stuck, There is like a light in the middle with electricity running down to it. If you go to the left there is three spiders, and to the right one scorpion. I need to get to the other side but it is just a little too far, and there are no green recharge dots to get there. Hopefully this helps.

I'm sorry, but are you sure, I have spent over three hours trying to get over, double jumping and hovering and I always come up a little short, is there something maybe I am doing wrong? Should I use the flamethrower, or the jet, or the gas, I have tried all three though. Please Help!!

I think you are thinking of a different part than where I am. After I left the prison cells, through the tunnel you have to duck to go into,going down the hallway there is a big jump that requires perfect timing. But this part, I am stuck at, is right after you avoid two guards, you go into a big square room with the electric septor in the middle of the room. There is a extended arm that reaches out to you on the side of the room you enter.
There are three spiders on the left ledge, which has recharge gas dots to get you there. Ther is a scorpion on the right, which also has three recharge dots to get you to that ledge. Once you go to the middle of the room under the electricity source, you have to go to the ledge straight ahead of you. I tried the flamethrower, same result. Thank you.

Great that did it, thank you so much.
