Title: How your power is free, its a ground wire and transformer
Post by: Marty Champions on October 05, 2021, 05:23:25 AM
The transformer will step up any voltage
 you can retreive trans from old radios or larger electronics or old junk stoves ect
The tran has input leads and output leads

 a ground wire  is driven into the ground by a metal rod, or  your homes existing ground wire driven into the ground

Most if not all power you see at the pole are a ground wire with a transformer , the power coming in from the ground is small but gets stepped way up through the coil of wire in a transformer. Size of wire matters

It is very easy to create power grid from a transformer with leads to a receptacle and ground wire

It’s free if you can use nature to generate the electricity as is the case near Niagara Falls. But if this isn’t available you have to generate it some other way like burning coal
Or natural gas.

a ground wire in the ground is the start of the circuit,  a good length of it driven into the ground with a metal rod  , have another metal conducter on hand not grounded youl get 15 v
You connect these leads to a transformer you get 60 v. Its easy to step up volts this way its how the power company does it. They want you to think its all dynamos

Hydropower from the Niagara Power Project is not really free as you need to build the massive infrastructure (it's huge) and employ all the technicians and maintenance workers.  It is "clean" though.

The Niagara hydro project is actually downstream a few miles from the falls.  It diverts water from above the falls into a reservoir which is then released into the power generators and outflow below the falls into the river.

The falls is receding a couple feet every year as water erodes the face of the falls.

Why did u post this bro thats mechanical hydro power , you dont need that but sure that works too

When I lived in Maui I had solar power and the electric company actually sent me a monthly check for excess power I contributed to the grid

you dont need to burn coal or gas, only need ground wire, a wire, transformer, wire leads off a transformer and a load

Some ask "why", others ask "why not".

i know most are already familiar with dynamos
