Lloyd Mandeno : ウィキペディア英語版 | Lloyd Mandeno Lloyd Mandeno (3 October 1888–30 December 1973) was a New Zealand electrical engineer, inventor and local politician. He was born in Rangiaowhia, Waikato, New Zealand on 3 October 1888. One of his notable accomplishments was the invention and widespread use of "single wire earth-return" (SWER) grids for rural electrification in New Zealand.〔Mandeno, L. (1947), ("Rural Power Supply Especially in Back Country Areas" ). ''Proceedings of the New Zealand Institute of Engineers'', Vol. 33, p. 234.〕 This form of grid uses only a single wire, and made rural electrification dramatically more affordable and commonplace. It improves the standard of living of rural families. SWER is now used in many countries, including Australia, Canada, Brazil and some parts of the U.S. In New Zealand, SWER is sometimes called "Mandeno's clothesline." In a history of WEL Networks, Lloyd, who was Chief Electrical Engineer at Frankton Power Station from 1913 to 1916, was described as having a distinguished career designing and building hydro power stations.〔Wiring up the Waikato published by WEL Networks research by Chris Gilson〕 ==References==
