  2. War of the currents - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_of_the_currents

    The war of the currents was a series of events surrounding the introduction of competing electric power transmission systems in the late 1880s and early 1890s. It grew out of two lighting systems developed in the late 1870s and early 1880s; arc lamp street lighting running on high-voltage alternating current (AC), and large-scale low-voltage direct current (DC) indoor incandescent lighting ...

    Westinghouse Electric was founded by George Westinghouse in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, on January 8, 1886. Building on the advancement of AC technology in Europe, [12] the firm became active in developing alternating current (AC) electric infrastructure throughout the United States. The company's largest factories were located in East Pittsburgh ...

  5. Electric generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_generator

    In electricity generation, a generator[1] is a device that converts motion-based power (potential and kinetic energy) or fuel-based power (chemical energy) into electric power for use in an external circuit. Sources of mechanical energy include steam turbines, gas turbines, water turbines, internal combustion engines, wind turbines and even ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_power_transmission

    Two additional circuits are obscured by trees on the far right. The entire 6809 MW [ 1 ] nameplate generation capacity of the dam is accommodated by these six circuits. Electric power transmission is the bulk movement of electrical energy from a generating site, such as a power plant, to an electrical substation.

  7. Resonant inductive coupling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resonant_inductive_coupling

    Resonant inductive coupling or magnetic phase synchronous coupling[4][5] is a phenomenon with inductive coupling in which the coupling becomes stronger when the "secondary" (load-bearing) side of the loosely coupled coil resonates. [5] A resonant transformer of this type is often used in analog circuitry as a bandpass filter.
