Zenobe Gramme

Zenobe Gramme (1826-1901), Belgian electrical engineer in his workshop. Gramme was interested in improving the efficiency of electrical devices. In 1710 he demonstrated the Gramme machine, a continuous-current generator that produced large currents in relation to its size. At an exhibition in Vienna, Austria, a technician wired a series of such machines together incorrectly, so that the wires from one which was running were joined to one which was not. To the amazement of the onlookers, the second machine began to turn: the Gramme machine could act as both a generator and a motor. This allowed the possibility for work to be transferred large distances via electricity. Taken from Physique Populaire, 1891

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the brilliant mind of Zenobe Gramme, a renowned Belgian electrical engineer, in his workshop. With an intense gaze and focused expression, Gramme is seen immersed in his work, surrounded by intricate machinery and tools. Gramme's passion for improving the efficiency of electrical devices led him to create a groundbreaking invention known as the Gramme machine. In 1871, he astounded onlookers at an exhibition in Vienna when a technician mistakenly wired two machines together incorrectly. To everyone's astonishment, the second machine began to turn – revealing that the Gramme machine could function not only as a generator but also as a motor. This accidental discovery revolutionized the field of electricity by opening up new possibilities for transferring work over large distances through electric power. The significance of this breakthrough cannot be overstated; it paved the way for countless advancements in technology and shaped our modern world. The historical context surrounding this image adds depth to its allure. Taken from Physique Populaire in 1891, this illustration transports us back to a time when scientific experimentation was at its peak. It serves as a testament to Zenobe Gramme's brilliance and contributions to electrical engineering – forever etching his name into history books.
