What was tesla known for?

Answer 1

For the AD current he invented. But Despite the fact that Tesla worked closely with Westinghouse, he still retained his own laboratory, and was very happy when he was working there. He continued to make new discoveries, one of which was a lamp that fluoresced, and was actually a forerunner of today's fluorescent tubes. These hit the market some fifty years after Tesla's prototypes! He also investigated many other phenomena including X-rays and a vacuum tube or valve very similar to the Audion or triode valve pioneered by de Forest in 1907.

Answer 2

Nikola Tesla was known for his pioneering work in the field of electromagnetism and electricity. He made significant contributions to the development of alternating current (AC) power systems, which revolutionized the way electricity is transmitted and distributed. Tesla also invented numerous devices and technologies that laid the foundation for modern electrical engineering.
