Isn't it possible that power connections are a little too mundane for you to be interested in learning interesting things about? Power Cables, on the other hand, are far more interesting than you ever imagined! Most of us have just seen power cables as a basic requirement that we don't even care about since their beginnings in 1882. But there's a lot more to these strings of wonder than meets the eye! Thomas Edison invented the first 'wire' in 1882. It wasn't even a wire; instead, it was a collection of copper tubes wrapped in jute! It was filled with asphalt, which provided insulation, due to its porous properties. This is because rubber insulation was not employed until 1897, and only in the power plant at Niagara Falls.
