The Tesla effect is an archaic term for an application of a type of electrical conduction . Through longitudinal waves, an operator uses the Tesla effect in the wireless transfer of energy to a receiving device.

Description


The Tesla effect is a type of high field gradient between electrode plates for wireless energy transfer. The Tesla effect uses high frequency alternating current Alternating current
