- W2019440726 abstract "SEBASTIAN ZIANI DE FERRANTI was born in Liverpool on April 9, 1864, and was educated at Hampstead School, St. Augustine's College, Ramsgate, and at University College, London. Even from his earliest days he showed a great bent towards engineering invention, and before he left school he began to build a dynamo. When he was only seventeen years of age the first Ferranti machine with its coreless disc armature was installed in the arches under Cannon Street Station. In the year 1882 he and Mr. Francis Ince went to Glasgow to interview Sir William Thomson (Lord Kelvin) to try to arrange a working agreement with him, as it was found that one of Thomson's patents partly anticipated Ferranti's invention. An agreement was arrived at, but it placed rather too heavy a burden on their manufacture. In 1883 the firm of S. Z. de Ferranti and Co., the forerunner of the large works at Hollinwood, Manchester, was established at Charterhouse Square. I remember going over this factory so long ago as 1890 and being greatly impressed by seeing hundreds of Ferranti meters all connected in series being tested." @default.
