While the stereotype of the engineer is someone working on the moonshot or next great jumbo jet, many engineers create devices which save us time or make things safer. Here are the pages we have produced on various appliances that depend on electricity.  If you need to understand some basics like the electric motor in a dishwasher just check out our Building Blocks section, otherwise jump in here.
