Ganz Company (Budapest, Hungary)
Develops his own design of transformer ( Brush Electric Company)
Charles Francis Brush
First built a “secondary generator” / step down transformer
Lucien Gaulard
John Dixon Gibbs
Suggested the use of closed-cores
Otto Blathy
Use of shunt connections
Karoly Zipemowsky
Performed the experimemts

Deri
Orders a siemens alternator
George Westinghouse
Makes the transformer more practical to use
