Powering Up: The GE and Westinghouse High Voltage Laboratories, from local to transnational grids
The GE and Westinghouse high voltage power engineering laboratories made possible safe, cost-effective long-distance power transmission at extra high voltages up to 765kV. This fabric wall charts their inception during the 1920s, when major cities became electrified, to their closure during the 1980s—in part owing to the demise of the US transformer and power circuit breaker markets.
