A Century of Networks in the Electrotechnical World—Concepts of Electrification in Czechoslovakia and in Europe, until the end of the 1930s
Original language description
As a technical and scientific branch, electrical engineering (and later also informatics or information science) began to be shaped and developed approximately since the last third of the 19th century, notably since 1881, the year of the convention of the First International Electrotechnical Congress and Exhibition in Paris, a gathering that defined basic electrotechnical units. Greater accent on the development of electrical engineering (and informatics) came at the time of the two World Wars, when—after WWI—all the major countries in the world had started building their national grids which were consequently interconnected primarily for technical and economic reasons. The period after WWII saw the emergence of cybernetics, electronics, electrical engineering and electronic miniaturization and informatics, disciplines fully dependent on a well-functioning and well-proportioned (and in most cases already internationally intertwined) electrification system.
