Most members of the electrical profession associate the name of Nikola Tesla with high-frequency and high-potential currents, and few are acquainted with the fact that he has also invented several...

Nikola Tesla (1856-1943) was born in an area of the world which was referred to as the Austria-Hungarian Empire. The exact location was a town called Smiljian, Croatia, which lies in a subgroup of...

This meter consists of an electrolytic cell, through which extend two conductors parallel and in close proximity to each other. These conductors are connected in series through a resistance, but in...

Some weeks ago we gave a short abstract of a paper read by Mr. Tesla on some very beautiful experiments he has been making. His paper, which is now accessible in full, has deservedly caused no little...

Incandescent Lamps without Return Circuit - Lighting by Condenser Discharge We illustrate herewith an interesting system of electric lighting invented by Mr. Tesla, which is the outgrowth of the...

I have been much interested in the accounts given by Mr. Nikola Tesla of his experiments with lamps in which illuminations are obtained without the use of the so-called filamentary conductors. The...

Of all the forms of nature’s all-pervading energy, which, ever changing and ever moving, like a soul animates the inert universe, those of electricity and magnetism are perhaps the most fascinating...

In the accompanying engravings are illustrated two types of improved lamps invented by Mr. Tesla, and designed for use in his recently patented system of incandescent electric lighting by means of...

One of the most noteworthy developments in the domain of alternate current working is the prominence which has been given within a comparatively short time to the condenser and its action in relation...

Pending the publication of the full report of Mr. Tesla’s lecture before the American Institute of Electrical Engineers , we give this week the essential principles embodied in a new system of...
