Ac Dc Edison Tesla

By maggie ryan sandford.

Ac dc edison tesla. Tesla believed that alternating current or ac was the solution to this problem. The war of the currents sometimes called battle 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. You ve probably heard about the famous rivalry between nikola tesla and thomas edison both giants of electrical. And can be converted to different voltages relatively easily using a transformer.

By showing myopia at the time edison abolished the impractical idea of tesla s alternate electric current ac but instead promoted his simple yet less efficient a vision of continuous dc. The two feuding geniuses waged a war of currents in the 1880s over whose electrical system would power the world tesla s alternating current ac system or edison s rival direct current dc. The ac dc current wars make a comeback the tesla vs edison battle of electric current is till on.
