During the late 1800’s there were two men who both started to mess with the power of electricity there was Edison and Nikola Tesla. Edison was the first man to create the electrical system, but according to Tesla the way Edison’s system was designed and had flaws that that Tesla didn’t agree with. Edison’s idea is still used to this day but now has the improvements that were given by Nikola Tesla. Nikola Tesla was born in Smijan, Croatia in 1856 to a mother named Djuka Mandic who was also an inventor for small appliances and a father named Milutin Tesla who was a man of the priesthood.

Edison had creation of the DC system which was a current that runs consistently in a singular direction, as in a battery or a power module. This was the early years of power, and the first electrical system for the U.S. Be that as it may, there was one issue. The direct current system was not an effective change over to higher or lower voltages. Tesla trusted that exchanging current as in his alternative current, which he believed to be the answer for this issue. Cycling the current made it easier for one to control the rotation of the currents which made it possible to change the overall voltage, his system made it almost effortless to be able to send out higher voltage
