A generator forces electrons in the windings to flow through the external electrical circuit. It is somewhat analogous to a water pump‚ which creates a flow of water but does not create the water inside. The source of mechanical energy may be a reciprocating or turbine steam engine‚ water falling through a turbine or waterwheel‚ an internal combustion engine‚ a wind turbine‚ a hand crank

first applications of electricity was the first incandescent light bulb in around 1870. The electric overhaul of society obviously brought many fresh new dangers with it‚ but it eliminated some of the old ones‚ like the naked flames of gas lighting that was commonly used in homes and factories then.
