Nikola Tesla arrived in New York on June 6, 1884 moving from his home country of Croatia, born in 1856 in Smiljan Lika. Nikola Tesla found himself working for the Edison Company of America soon after arriving. The Edison Company sold DC power to customers, they had many problems not yet solved. DC Current had a limited life span due to the problems that came with transmitting DC Current.

 

One problem the Edison Company had was scaling up the power plants. Edison could not make a big enough Generator to service all of his customers so he tried to couple two together. The biggest problem, was when one Dynamo (back then a Generator was called a dynamo) is high and the other dynamo was low, the High Dynamo would try to drive the Low Dynamo, thus, the Low Dynamo would turn into a DC Motor and the High Dynamo would drive the DC Motor. In other words, if the Phasing of the Dynamos were 180 degrees out of phase then would drive each other and not be dynamos for supplying power any more. This defeated the hole purpose of coupling two Dynamos. Coupling two Dynamos together promised to be a difficult task for Edison.

 

The Great Nikola Tesla had the opportunity to solve a big problem that Edison had with trying to couple his big DC Generators. He was promised $50,000 if he could solve the problem.

Thomas Edison:

Nikola Tesla solved the problem, it was a simple phasing problem and all Nikola Tesla had to do was couple the Dynamos together at 0 or at 90 degrees out of phase and not the previous 180 degrees..

Nikola Tesla never received the Money from Edison.

Here we can see a VERY important lesson in Phasing and what Phasing can do in electrical Circuits. If we let the mind run wild for a minute we can see some very important implications especially in light of the recent information surfaced in conjunction with older data and combining similar technologies we have researched. Our overall picture is expanding and our task at hand is becoming clearer. Could we be looking at the Motional E-Field if we have the right Geometry? It certainly looks this way.
