Lighting Catalog - Light Fixtures, Ceiling Fans & Accessories

George Westinghouse was a renowned inventor long before his name became a brand.

He is one of the most productive inventors on record, credited with over 400 patents —

many of them “firsts” that changed the way the world lived.

One of Westinghouse’s primary contributions to modern life was his championing

of alternating current (AC) rather than the direct current (DC) systems favored

by Thomas Edison. Because AC was dramatically safer, Westinghouse’s victory

over Edison led to the electrification of American homes. To demonstrate the

advantages of AC, Westinghouse staged grand displays like the

illumination of the 1893 World’s Fair.

George Westinghouse’s spirit

of innovation and commitment to

improving quality of life is alive and
