He moved to New York in 1884 and in the same year he fixed a problem that Edison had in his direct current system. Al thought the system was invented the fixing was an invention by itself.

Nikola Tesla's first invention, an improved telephone repeater, was developed during his early career working for the Central Telegraph Office in Budapest. It is believed that he completed this invention within a couple of years after starting his employment there.
Nikola Tesla's invention of the Tesla coil helped solve challenges related to wireless transmission of electricity, high voltage experiments, and the development of radio technology. The coil demonstrated the feasibility of transmitting electricity wirelessly over long distances and facilitated experimentation with high-frequency alternating currents.
Nikola Tesla considered his alternating current (AC) electrical system to be his most significant invention. AC power transmission is widely used today for its efficiency in delivering electricity over long distances. Tesla's work in developing AC technology helped pave the way for modern electrical systems.
Nikola Tesla attended the Higher Real Gymnasium in Karlovac for four years (1870-1873) and the Technical University of Graz for three years (1875-1878) before leaving to pursue his career.
Nikola Tesla worked for Thomas Edison for about a year in the 1880s before leaving due to disagreements over payment and differing opinions on electrical technology.
Nikola Tesla did not invent the Tesla coil in a specific amount of time. The Tesla coil was developed over a period of several years, starting in the 1890s. Tesla conducted numerous experiments and made incremental improvements to the design of the coil before achieving its final form. The Tesla coil is a type of resonant transformer circuit used to produce high-voltage, low-current, high frequency alternating-current electricity.
