We thought of introducing this section to give tribute to famous personalities who have changed and are changing the coarse of world and to introduce those who are not known to a majority of our audience. So, today we thought of talking about Zenobe Gramme, a fantastic engineer of past(ourselves being enginnering). It was on this day in 1901,the great man had gone for ever.
Gramme was born at Jehay-Bodegnee on 4 April, 1826. He caught his place in the history through his famous invention The Gramme Machine(also known as Gramme ring, Gramme magneto or Gramme dynamo) which was an electric generator that produces direct current. It was the first generator to produce electricity on a commercial scale for industries.
