Electricity is transferred through a service cable from a tertiary distribution to your home.
The type of electricity typically used in homes is alternating current (AC) electricity.
In 1890, some homes had electricity but it was not yet common. Electric heaters were not widely used in homes during that time period. Most homes relied on coal, wood, or gas for heating.
Electricity began to be installed in domestic homes in Tyne and Wear in the late 19th century. By the early 20th century, most homes in the region had access to electricity for lighting and other electrical appliances.
In 1960, approximately 80% of homes in Britain had access to electricity. This was a significant increase from previous decades due to continued expansion of the electricity grid and infrastructure developments.
No. Water can be used in a hydroelectric dam to generate electricity, but this does not make us use more or less water in our homes.
Electricity is not an energy resource. It is called an energy carrier. That means the energy resource (coal, uranium, oil, gas, wood, wind, solar, etc..) is transferred to electricity (in a power plant) and this electricity is transferred to the end energy user (homes, industry, etc..).
Energy is typically transferred to homes and industries through the electrical grid. Electricity is generated at power plants using various sources like coal, natural gas, nuclear, or renewable energy. Once generated, the electricity is transmitted through high-voltage power lines to substations, where the voltage is lowered for distribution to homes and businesses through power lines and transformers.
19 million homes had electricity in the 1970s

Coal is burned in a furnace to heat water and create steam. The steam turns a turbine connected to a generator, which produces electricity. The electricity is then sent out through power lines for use in homes and businesses.
Homes began to have electricity installed in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
Yes they did. Many homes had electricity in 1934

Outside the homes, electricity is transferred at several thousand volts, for reasons of efficiency (less energy is wasted that way). This voltage is far too high for home use. (Also, home devices are set up for a specific voltage.)Outside the homes, electricity is transferred at several thousand volts, for reasons of efficiency (less energy is wasted that way).

Electricity is passed through a wire from battery to bulb
It is electricity, produced by the movement of electrons, that is a form of energy we use in homes.
