As it turned out, Edison’s DC current was not as effective as Tesla’s own alternating current method in transmitting electricity over long distances. When Tesla came to the United States, he worked for Thomas Edison in Manhattan and was promised $50,000 if he could make Edison’s direct current method successful. Nikola Tesla’s Best-Known Invention - the Alternating Current His first job entailed retailing DC power plants for ConEd which led to his immigration to the states in 1884. In 1882, upon graduation from the Technical University of Graz and Philosophy at the University of Prague, he drew the first sketches of his idea to build an electromagnetic motor. He held over three hundred patents, but was only recognized for some, indicating many of his ideas were tested and failed or never became well known. Born in Smiljan, Croatia, in 1856, the math and physics genius contributed innovations that continue to impact our lives daily today.
Nikola Tesla inventions constitute numerous technological breakthroughs throughout his lifetime.
