This Clock Made Power Grids Possible

Cars That Think

As more power stations adopted the clocks, the frequency regulation allowed them to share electricity and create an interconnected power grid. But by the 1950s, clocks with improved batteries and oscillating quartz crystal resonators began to replace consumer electric clocks that synchronized with the power grid.
