Jacques de Romas, French physicist
Jacques de Romas (1713-1776), French physicist. Romas wrote a dissertation in 1750 on the physical similarities between lightning and electricity. Romas first performed his kite experiment in Nerac, France, on 7 June 1753. His kite had a wire interwoven in the string to aid conduction. Using a tin conductor he produced very long sparks, watched by an amazed crowd. A similar experiment by Benjamin Franklin took place in June 1752, though Romas designed his experiment independently. Romas installed lightning rods in his local area later in the 1750s. He was made a member of the French Academy of Sciences in 1764. Artwork published in 1867.
