That is for starters :


Like someone say :     "For starters, there is no such thing as single-wire energy transmission."
Maybe we could try without wires .....

My apologies, it was not an LED I lit with one hand ...
Maybe this example best illustrates how I love playing with LEDs.

Sure I would be happy to explain this to you again.  Typically high-frequency voltage travels down the single wire.  However, with no current flow you cannot transfer any AC power into the load.  So the question is how do you get current to flow when there is no apparent current loop in the circuit?  As we know, for current to flow, there must be a loop.

We also know that there exists so-called "stray" (a.k.a. parasitic) capacitance everywhere.  A capacitor is just two conducting plates separated by a distance.  Let's look at a trivial example.  Suppose you are outside in your back yard.  Let's say there is an insulating plastic lawn chair that you are sitting in and your feet are not touching the ground.  We know that the ground is conductive and there is always some moisture in the ground that helps it become more conductive.  We also know the human body is basically salty water, and so the human body is conductive.

Therefore, when you sit on an insulating plastic chair in your back yard with your feet not touching the ground we can say that there is a measurable capacitance between your body and the ground.  It may be very small, perhaps 100 pF, but it is there and it is measurable.  In reality, there is stray or parasitic capacitance everywhere.

It is this stray capacitance that allows AC current to conduct in a current loop that allows for so-called "single wire power transmission."

Here is a typical circuit current loop:

<earth ground> ---> <stray capacitor #1> ---> <high frequency AC signal generator> ---> <load> ---> <stray capacitor #2> ---> <back to earth ground>

When you do a "single wire power transmission" experiment there are typically two "invisible" stray capacitors that allow AC current to flow.  Therefore the load sees both voltage and current and therefore AC power gets transferred into the load.  Small neon lights and LEDs require very little power to light up and that's why you often see them lit in experiments like this.

This is a fairly straightforward concept that should be understood by people interested in experimenting with electronics.

Sir..

Your explanation is plausible but if this is correct then we have high frequency always coming to us in the form of Sun light and cosmic rays. It should be possible for us to synchronize and then collect the power anywhere in the world at any time of the day or night. Why are we not able to do that? Would you please advise.

I do not dispute that your explanation is plausible but I do not get it as to why we cannot have devices in the way you describe. I myself have built and tested wireless Electricity transmission but these are small experiments and have been done before.

Please advise your insight as to how your theory can be used to make electricity everywhere at any time.
