Is nature the father of electricity? Who invented the first electric ball? Which inventor invented electricity in general? But who is to credit for this awesome. Nothing is too wonderful to be true,.

He held the position of president of the Royal College of Physicians and was physician to Elizabeth I. Faraday developed or invented many items and methods, including the electric motor, transformer, generator, Faraday cage and many other achievements. He was an inventor, electrical and mechanical engineer, as well as a futurist best known for his contributions in the design of the modern “alternating current” (AC) electrical system. (more…)
