LTjg. R. E. Cast E Division Officer Nicolai Tesla had a momentous idea. He would build a huge tower and from it charge the earth with electricity, then one would only have to stick wires into the ground to draw all power needed. Ships with electric motors would cross oceans simply by dragging wires in the water. Unfortunately it didn ' t work. But man soon developed the alternating current generator and this proved to be the most practical source of electricity. Now electrical power can be produced aboard a ship and routed to every corner. E division supplies lighting, electrical power, interior communications, maintains switch- boards which supply power to all parts of the ship, and repairs and maintains aviation and ordnance electrical equipment.
