The Big Misconception About Electricity


This vid goes quite a ways down the road to explaining why:

1)  Power cords make a not so subtle difference.

2) Cable elevators should not be looked at askance.

For sure Kennedy is wrong if he say vaccines are ALL bad...

But it is not what he say...

Inform yourself before reading piece of promotional garbage against him in the ACTUAL CIRCONSTANCE.....

More easy than read a book for sure...

He is wrong’: Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s family calls him out for anti-vaccine conspiracy theories

 

I will only disprove one of your points mahgister, since you appear to have drunk the Telsa cult coolaid.

The Niagara Falls generating station was completed in 1895. Can you at least make it look like you are doing some research?

 

 

The Adams power plant followed an 1886 plan by engineer Thomas Evershed to tap the power of Niagara Falls, which involved a "hydraulic canal" and a 7,500 feet (2,300 m) brick-lined tunnel, when the Niagara Falls Power Company was formed. The Cataract Construction Company, a new company formed to exploit the opportunity, led by president Edward Dean Adams, first formed the International Niagara Commission in 1890 to come up with a plan for harnessing the Falls. The Commission favored electricity, but could not recommend a solution to Cataract.[3]

 

In 1892, George Forbes was hired as a technical consultant and in May 1893 he convinced the company to build a hydroelectric system based on polyphase alternating current. Westinghouse Electric was subcontracted to build 5,000 horsepower (3,700 kW) 25 Hz[4] AC generators, based on the work of Nikola Tesla and Benjamin G. Lamme, while the I. P. Morris Company of Philadelphia built the turbines based on the design of the Swiss company Faesch and Piccard.[

 

Lamme created an efficient induction motor from Nikola Tesla's patents and went on to design the giant Niagara Falls generators

 

If you are going to post stuff, please do at least a modicum of research. I am done with the lot of you. You would be far more at home at 4Chan.

 

you are pathetic...

I just indicated in my precedent post that no inventor is ALONE in this complex field.. THIS IS A COMMONPLACE FACT.....

You will try anything to eliminate Tesla and Even your post reveal your stupid tactic...

Have you ever learn how to read? LAMME WAS WORKING WITH TESLA PATENTS UNDER HIS DIRECTION...

All history book credited Tesla For Niagara falls... An history of all the details and engineers linked to it could NEVER change that...For sure there are other engineer in the world...But no engineer own 278 patents save the like of Steinmetz Tesla and very few other...Not one is a tinkerer...... Then why saying that he is a "tinkerer" ? He was a physicist....

This is my point...

I know perfectly well that you know way more about practical electricity than me, then why being stupid to gain a match in a discussion with stupid arguments? There is a Tesla cult yes, an edison cult yes... So what....Tesla is not a tinkerer admit you were WRONG saying it....

All people can read your post do you have no shame?

based on the work of Nikola Tesla and Benjamin G. Lamme, while the I. P. Morris Company of Philadelphia built the turbines based on the design of the Swiss company Faesch and Piccard.[

Bye Bye Mahgister. Make up whatever version of history you want. Lamme was the senior employee, not Tesla.  It was not the first hydro plant. It was not the first AC plant. It was not the first polyphase plant. It was the first large one at scale, and Lamme was significantly responsible for that, hence why the IEEE gave him awards. Most researched history books agree completely with what I am saying. Pop history books in the last 10 years have been riding that other Tesla coat tail and pumping the former Tesla. In the 70's and 80's, barely anyone mentioned him name other than Tesla coils.

Yes the first large one at scale and the more spectacular....And Lamme was working with Tesla patents and not OVER TESLA...Westinghouse who know BETTER than you admired Tesla and Lamme was under Westinghouse...

Do you know why no book mentionned him?

He NEVER published any acadamic papers only patents...

He never have any academic careeer, he work alone, and Why do we call a unit of the magnetic field strenght a TESLA? To honor a tinkerer ?

Because there is a cult behind this fact ?

Is Tesla a tinkerer?

Answer please before ...Spell the truth...

Dont hide before a date or argument like he was not alone or the first, or he made nothing remarkable...

Answer the truth...

Was he a tinkerer or not?

Bye bye is not an argument but a chidish gesture sorry...

By the way Wrote to this man that he is in a cult..Tesla was only a tinkerer...

"The evolution of electric power from the discovery of Faraday in 1831 to the initial great installation of the Tesla polyphase system in 1896 is undoubtedly the most tremendous event in all engineering history"
