Early
History
of
Electricity
The
Word
electricity
comes
from
the
Latin
term
electricus,
meaning
to
"produce
from
amber
by
friction."
This
term
has
its
roots
in
the
Greek
term
elektor,
which
means
beaming
sun.
Without
knowing
what
it
was,
the
effects
of
electricity
have
been
observed
in
nature
for
centuries.
Modern
milestones
in
the
discovery
and
harnessing
of
electricity
began
in
1729
with
Stephen
Gray's
discovery
of
the
conduction
of
electricity.
In
October
of
1745,
Georg
Von
Kleist
discovered
that
electricity
was
controllable
and
invented
what
came
to
be
called
the
"Leyden
Jar."
It
is
"an
electrical
condenser
consisting
of
a
glass
jar
coated
inside
and
outside
with
metal
foil,
having
the
inner
coating
connected
to
a
conducting
rod
passed
through
the
insulated
stopper."
Starting
in
1747,
Benjamin
Franklin
worked
with
static
charges
in
the
air
and
noted
that
that
their
existence
suggested
the
existence
of
an
electrical
fluid
that
could
possibly
be
composed
of
particles.
In
1750
Franklin
discovered
that
lightning
was
the
same
as
electrical
discharges,
and
proposed
the
idea
of
lightning
rods
that
would
draw
this
charge
away
from
homes,
making
them
safer
and
less
prone
to
fires.
In
1752,
Franklin
reported
the
results
of
his
famous
kite
experiments
to
the
Royal
Society.
In
1799
the
Royal
Institution
of
Great
Britain
was
founded.
It
provided
important
support
for
the
investigation
of
electricity
and
magnetism.
The
same
year,
Alessandro
Volta
proved
that
electricity
could
be
created
using
"dissimilar
metals
separated
by
a
salt
solution."
Volta
used
copper
and
zinc
plates
separated
by
cardboard
that
was
soaked
in
a
saline
solution
to
produce
this
effect.
Stacking
these
"cells
on
top
of
one
another,
he
devised
the
first
electric
battery,"
the
first
continuous
and
controlled
source
of
electricity.
In
1820,
Hans
Christian
Oersted
discovered
the
magnetic
effects
of
a
current,
by
observing
that
electrical
currents
effected
the
needle
on
a
compass.
A
few
weeks
later,
Marie
Ampere
discovered
that
a
coil
of
wires
acts
like
a
magnet
when
a
current
is
passed
thorough
it.
In
1827
Joseph
Henry
began
a
series
of
electromagnetic
experiments
and
discovered
the
concept
of
electrical
inductance.
He
also
built
one
of
the
first
electrical
motors.
That
same
year,
Georg
Simon
Ohm
working
in
the
field
of
current
electricity
discovered
the
"conduction
law
that
relates
potential,
current,
and
circuit
resistance."
In
tribute
to
him,
the
Ohm,
denotes
the
unit
of
electrical
resistance."
In
1831
Michael
Faraday
discovered
electromagnetic
induction.
He
explained
that
it
was
necessary
to
have
a
change
in
a
magnetic
field
to
create
current,
and
that
its
mere
presence
was
not
enough.
These
milestones
marked
the
beginning
of
the
field
of
electricity
and
electrical
engineering
that
are
continuously
being
further
developed.
