Try as he might, Thomas Edison was unable to create an effective way to take electricity to people's homes because<u> D. He </u><u>insisted </u><u>on using </u><u>direct current, </u><u>which could only </u><u>travel </u><u>a </u><u>short distance.</u>

Thomas Edison:

  • Tried to transmit electricity directly to people's homes
  • Used only direct current to transmit power

Even though direct current supported the lights the day more than alternate current, it could not travel very far which meant that the supply plant had to be located near people.

This couldn't happen for the plant at the Niagara falls so we can conclude that Edison was unable to bring electricity to people's homes from there.
