Westinghouse Electric Corporation Mouse Pad
Bring Westinghouse Electric Corporation history to the desktop. This mouse pad recognizes a company founded in Pittsburgh in 1886 that became closely identified with alternating-current power, transformer systems, Niagara Falls generation, steam turbines, broadcasting, appliances, transportation, and nuclear technology. The graphic offers an everyday connection to the layered visual language of American industrial design, whether your workspace is home, office, studio, or shop.
Westinghouse Electric Corporation began in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, on January 8, 1886, when George Westinghouse founded the business that became Westinghouse Electric & Manufacturing Company. Building on alternating-current technology, it developed AC infrastructure in the United States, with major factories in East Pittsburgh and Lester, Pennsylvania, and Hamilton, Ontario. The company helped demonstrate transformer-based lighting in Great Barrington, Massachusetts, in 1886, installed AC generators at Niagara Falls in 1895, and put its first commercial steam-turbine generator into service at Hartford Electric Light Co. in 1901. Its work expanded into power equipment, broadcasting, appliances, transportation, aviation, and nuclear technology. Renamed Westinghouse Electric Corporation in 1945, it later changed course through finance and broadcasting. It bought CBS in 1994, became CBS Corporation in 1997, and sold its nuclear business to BNFL in 1999; that business was re-formed as Westinghouse Electric Company. The Westinghouse trademarks were acquired by Westinghouse Electric Corporation in 2021.
