We present a natural mechanism which may induce an electric charge into an accretting black hole in the presence of a strong, high energy radiation field. We study this mechanism using Newtonian physics, and we also discuss the process within the context of a Kerr Newman black hole. Finally, we consider possible astrophysical applications in X-ray variability and jet formation in the Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN).
