Abstract
FIAT LUX! In the legends of most cultures only a God could bring the first light in the creation of the World. Today anyone can turn on a light where-ever they wish. How did we get here, how did we become creators of our own light? This journey of creation passed through three major steps, which we call today the technical revolutions: I. The energy of nature (water, wind); II. The energy of steam; III. The energy of electricity. The story of this last kind of energy, used for lighting, was fulfilled at the beginning of the XX century. By what means and when did this process take place in Transylvania? This is what the study seeks to answer.
