Tesla's most significant inventions are the polyphase system, the rotating magnetic field, the asynchronous motor, the synchronous motor and Tesla's transformer. He also discovered one of the ways to generate high-frequency current, made a significant contribution to the transmission and modulation of radio signals, and his works in the field of X-rays were also noticed.Nikola Tesla is the author of more than 700 patents, registered in 25 countries, of which 112 in the field of electrical engineering. This book contains a list of experiments done by Nikola Tesla and also gives instructions for repeating the experiments (at least the simplest ones).
