A Tesla coil is an electrical resonant transformer circuit designed by inventor Nikola Tesla in 1891. [1] It is used to produce high-voltage, low-current, high-frequency alternating-current electricity. [2] [3] Tesla experimented with a number of different configurations consisting of two, or sometimes three, coupled resonant electric circuits.
Nikola Tesla patented the Tesla coil circuit on April 25, 1891. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] and first publicly demonstrated it May 20, 1891 in his lecture " Experiments with Alternate Currents of Very High Frequency and Their Application to Methods of Artificial Illumination " before the American Institute of Electrical Engineers at Columbia College , New York.
