Columbia's Edison incandescent socket and bulb assemblies now dangle instead by just their loose wires. To alleviate this problem, Edison company electrical engineers decided to best let the S.S. The bulbs dropped as the ship's vibration shuttered with great intensity: The Edison dynamo down below, echoing from the ship's engine room bowels. Columbia's maiden voyage with the electric dynamo system retrofit, without any immediate notice, the newly installed Edison electric bulbs began popping on to the ship deck floors, smacking hard as they seemingly jumped from their electric sockets, dropping one by one. Edison's infant electric incandescent lamp company. There, running was the power system to the electric incandescent lighting retrofit that had just been ordered first from Thomas A. Columbia, all caused by the newly nicknamed and installed 'tight-waisted Mary Ann' Edison dynamo chugging in the Columbia's engine room below. Unfortunately so intense a vibration occurred on-board the S.S. Through this carried the two electrical wires down to the turned wood and metal fitted socket and terminal points leading to the carbon filament first form electric 'Wire-Terminal Base' Edison incandescent bulb. Columbia's electrical sockets were connected to the newly installed electric dynamo by a pair of cloth braided copper wire to a threaded hollow brass tubular bracket arm like those used in standard gas illuminating fixtures of the day. This ocean going vessel installation employed use of a first form '1880 Wire Terminal Base' wood socket and carbon filament incandescent bulb. The very first commercial Edison electric incandescent light installation took place on the S.S. sample list of incandescent lamp 'isolated plant' dynamo service current as of mid-1887.
