Best Answer

Otto Von Guericke was one of the first to experiment with the concept of electricity and created a Madgeburg vacuum in 1663, which became known as the first electrostatic generator. The generator itself consisted of a rotating ball of sulfur. Rubbing the ball produced friction that converted into electrostatic energy.

Where was first generator build?

The first generators of electricity were not electrodynamic as today's machines, but they were based on electrostatic principles. Long before electrodynamic generators were invented, electrostatic machines and devices had their place in science. Due to their principle of operation, electrostatic generators produce high voltage, but low currents. The output is always a unipolar static voltage. Depending from the used materials, it may be positve or negative.
