Abstract
The basic stages of the history of electrical engineering are considered. Characteristic stages of centenary cycles of study in electrical engineering from 1620, 1720, and 1820 are analyzed. The contribution of scientific physicists and electrical engineers to electrostatics and electrodynamics formation are presented. A forecast of the next peak of inventions in electrical engineering, which will occur in 2020 in microdynamics (quantum physics), is given.
