I probably shouldn't admit this but........... After all the Edison/Tesla
things I've seen over the years and a discussion with my brother that worked
for Los Angeles Department of Water and Power, I was SHOCKED to learn that some
of their main transmission lines are actually DC. I have always assumed all the
main power lines are AC. Even studies I've seen regarding health issues from
power lines reference AC.
There is interesting reading at
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_power_transmission
OK, so you all knew this........ but it was news to me.
