Electricity - Unseen Fuel of Modern Life
Just
as coal enabled the industrial revolution,
electricity is the unseen fuel of modern
life. The dramatic increase in the use of
electricity for domestic and industrial
purposes proves that electrical energy plays
an important part in our society.
It is impossible to imagine what our lives
would be like without access to this source
of energy.
-
Technologies associated with electricity
have made our lives easier.
-
Modern
society is indeed unworkable without
the existence of electrical appliances.
-
Likewise,
emerging telecommunication and information
services have greatly enhanced the ability
of individuals and groups to communicate
with each other and have facilitated
the speed of information to persons
and machines in both urban and rural
environments.
Whatever
the particular field of services, possession
of basic knowledge forms the basis for the
performance of many varied tasks that today’s
engineer is called on by industry and employers
to do-and to do well.
