Electrical telegraphy may be considered the first example of electrical engineering. [5] Electrical engineering became a profession in the later 19th century. Practitioners had created a global electric telegraph network, and the first professional electrical engineering institutions were founded in the UK and the US to support the new discipline.

Electrical engineering – field of engineering that generally deals with the study and application of electricity, electronics and electromagnetism. The field first became an identifiable occupation in the late nineteenth century after commercialization of the electric telegraph and electrical power supply.

power engineering That part of electrical engineering that deals with the generation, distribution and consumption of electrical power. power-factor correction Apparatus intended to bring the power factor of some load closer to 1. power factor The ratio of apparent power flowing to a load divided by the real power. power-flow study
Electronic engineering is a sub-discipline of electrical engineering that emerged in the early 20th century and is distinguished by the additional use of active components such as semiconductor devices to amplify and control electric current flow. Previously electrical engineering only used passive devices such as mechanical switches, resistors ...
