| - La Edison and Swan Electric Light Company Limited estis fabrikanto de inkandeskaj lampoj kaj de aliaj elektraj varoj. Ĝi estis formita en 1883 kun la nomo Edison & Swan United Electric Light Company pere de la kunigo de la entreprenoj Swan United Electric Company kaj Edison Electric Light Company. Thomas Edison establis la Edison Electric Light Company en 1878. Joseph Swan establis la Swan United Electric Light Company en 1881. En 1882 la American Edison Company de Thomas Edison plendis kontraŭ la Swan Company, asertante malrespekton de la usona patento de Edison de 1879; tamen, Swan povis pruvi antaŭajn esploradon kaj publikigon, kaj por eviti necertan kaj multekostan procesadon la du kompanioj negocis sian kunigon. La lampoj venditaj en Britio estis preskaŭ tute laŭ desegno de Swan, escepte pro la filamentoj. El 1887 aŭ pli frue Sir estis konsilisto por la kompanio, kaj direktoris la esploradon en Ponders End. La kompanio havis oficejojn en 155 Charing Cross Road, Londono, kaj fabrikojn en Brimsdown, Ponders End kaj Sunderland. En 1928, la kompanio estis akirita de Associated Electrical Industries. En 1956, oni malfermis fabrikon de novkatodaj tuboj en Sunderland. La kompanio estis renomita Siemens Ediswan post la akiro fare de Siemens Brothers fare de AEI en 1957. En 1964, AEI kunigis siajn lampajn kaj radiovalvajn fabrikinteresojn kun tiuj de Thorn Electrical Industries por formi British Lighting Industries Ltd. (eo)
- The Edison and Swan Electric Light Company Limited was a manufacturer of incandescent lamp bulbs and other electrical goods. It was formed in 1883 with the name Edison & Swan United Electric Light Company with the merger of the Swan United Electric Company and the Edison Electric Light Company. Thomas Edison established the Edison Electric Light Company in 1878. Joseph Swan established the Swan United Electric Light Company in 1881. Swan sued Edison in the UK, claiming patent infringement; this was upheld by the British courts. In 1882, Edison sued Swan, claiming infringement of his 1879 U.S. patent; however, the Edison Company believed their case would be jeopardized if Swan could demonstrate prior research and publication. Subsequently, in order to avoid uncertain and expensive litigation, the two companies negotiated a merger. The glass bulbs sold in Britain were of Swan's design, while the filaments were of Edison's. From 1887 or earlier Sir Ambrose Fleming was an adviser to the company, and conducted research at Ponders End. The company had offices at 155 Charing Cross Road, London, and factories in Brimsdown, Ponders End and Sunderland. In 1928, the company was acquired by Associated Electrical Industries. In 1956, a new cathode ray tube plant was opened in Sunderland. The company was renamed Siemens Ediswan following the takeover of Siemens Brothers by AEI in 1957. In 1964, AEI merged its lamp and radio valve manufacturing interests with those of Thorn Electrical Industries to form British Lighting Industries Ltd. (en)
