History of electricity
History of Electricity
Discovery of Electricity
In 1752, Benjamin Franklin conducted an experiment where he
tied a key to a kite during a thunderstorm and proved that the
static electricity and lightning were one and the same thing.
This opened the door to learn more about this potential power
source.
Michael Faraday provided the first breakthrough in 1831.This
British scientist mathematically discovered the principles of
how to create and sustain electricity. He did so using
experiments that involved moving magnets around coils of copper
wire until they generated a current.

How does an electric circuit work?
An electrical circuit is composed of a source of
electrical power, two wires that can carry electric
current, and a light bulb. One end of both the wires
is attached to the terminal of a cell while their free
ends are connected to the light bulb. The electrical
circuit is broken when the bulb is switched off.
The Building Blocks of the Circuit:
● Rule 1 – Electricity will always want to flow from
a higher voltage to a lower voltage.
● Rule 2 – Electricity always has work that needs to
be done.
● Rule 3 – Electricity always needs a path to travel.
Transistors - a semiconductor device with three connections,
capable of amplification in addition to rectification
Resistors - a device having resistance to the passage of an
electric current.
Capacitor - is an electronic component that stores and releases
electricity in a circuit.
Inductors - An inductor is a passive electronic component which is
capable of storing electrical energy in the form of magnetic energy
Diodes - a semiconductor device with two terminals, typically
allowing the flow of current in one direction only
Connecting wires - an electrical current to travel from one
point on a circuit

❏ Connecting Wires ❏ Inductors
❏ Resistors ❏ diodes
A circuit is complete only if
it starts and ends at the same
point, forming a loop

Statistics of Haryana and
Telangana
Haryana Telangana
During the fiscal year 2020, The per capita power consumption
the electricity demand at in Telangana State has shot up by
the north Indian state of 59.3 percent to 1,727 units as
Haryana increased by 0.6 against 1,084 units during
percent as compared to the 2013-14.According to D Prabhakar
previous fiscal year. The Rao, CMD, Transco and Genco,
“Telangana State secured the
state's electricity demand
first place in the country in
fell by around 20 percent power consumption and per capita
during the month of May that power consumption, both part of
year.The per capita development indexes. The Central
consumption of electricity Electricity Authority has
increased from 57 units in announced the details of the
1967-68 to 1,628 units in progress of various states in
2015-16 power sector for the year
2017-18.”

“La physique apprend aux gens
à accepter la réalité avec
respect et admiration, sans
parler de la stupéfaction et de
la joie qui l'accompagnent.”
(Physics teaches people to accept reality with
respect and admiration, not to mention the
amazement and joy that come with it.)
-Lise Meitner
Conclusion
The discovery of electricity was a turning point of
history because without it we wouldn’t live in the
world that we live in today which is filled with life
changing technology but it all needs and uses
electricity. Without electricity you wouldn’t be able
to view this page or be on a computer at this very
moment. Electricity is something that we all live by
whether we notice it or not, some of us wouldn’t be
able to survive without it because it is a must needed
source to our everyday lives. It is used to help save
people, in education, hospitals, cities, etc., we live
by this incredible creation that mother nature has
given us and we have been able to control it with our
very own hands throughout centuries. Especially in this
crazy changing world where things are being invented
and created everyday, it would not be possible without
"Electricity".
