How did he develop this within Westinghouse's auspices/support, and Westinghouse didn't patent it?

Westinghouse let employees put their designs in their own name. George wanted the inventor to have credit for his invention. I remember hearing it in this documentary on Westinghouse. Good one if you haven't seen it, but I don't have the time right now to rewatch it to find the quote about patents.
