3 water The water supply industry is vitally important not only to maintain the health of the community, but for the sustainability of industry, business and agriculture.
Without adequate water supplies our present society would never have evolved, and our lives today would be unrecognizable. Our dependence on treated water is now incalculable, and
4
threats to that supply are comparable to the worst natural and man-made disasters. The volumes of water consumed each day by agriculture, industry and the public are vast, requiring an enormous infrastructure to satisfy the demand. Like the other service providers, electricity, telephone and gas, the water utilities deliver their product to the home, which requires a network of
5
distribution pipes to service each household, but unlike the other utilities these are stand alone local or regional networks, rather than integrated national supply networks.

Electricity
Electricity is a naturally occurring force that exists all around us. Humans have been aware of this force for many centuries. Ancient man believed that electricity was some form of magic because they did not understand it. Greek philosophers noticed that when a piece of amber was rubbed with cloth, it
7
would attract pieces of straw. They recorded the first references to electrical effects, such as static electricity and lightning, over 2,500 years ago.

    One of Franklin’s most used inventions is the lightning rod. Franklin studied electricity in a small laboratory. He assumed lightning was electricity he but wanted to prove it. “On a stormy night in 1752, he conducted a life threatening experiment to demonstrate that lightning is the result of electrical buildup. He constructed a kite that carried a metal spike and flew it into the thunderstorm” (Bhunoo 201). Franklin reeled his kite back in to study it. He was trying to get the lightning to strike the key and see if his theory was correct. “Franklin noticed that it sparked as he brought his knuckles close to it” (Bhunoo 201). As the lightning sparked he understood that it was electricity. Even though some people credit Franklin with the invention of electricity, electricity was in existence long before he was born.…
