Abstract

At last 20s, beginnings of 30s of the last century, Catalonia completed the industrial stage in its electrification. The supply companies, interested in increasing the number of subscribers, fixed their objective in individual users. Diverse initiatives were launched to convince potential clients of the electrical illumination advantages as well as the goodness of new household electrical technologies. This paper analyses some of this initiatives in the framework of the new approximations to popularization of science and technology.
