Checkers and Avtrician
So it's safe to "come out" on this subject then.
I have always suspected that this is the actual rather than postulated description of the transmission of electrickery.
Like all physics the simple answer is always the best.
I mean all that smoke generated at the power station has to go some where. Sure in the early days they hadn't got the efficiencies in production sorted so a fair bit of the smoke escaped up the chimney stack whereas with the modern plants they have got it down to almost zero.
But thn I don't have a degree in electrical engineering so what would I know?
I'm with you Avtrician just happy to KNOW.
And when I see the workers milling around the power poles scratching their heads the slow distant smile starts. Smoke is much smarter then they know
