	HISTORY OF SIEMENS AND HALSKE - WERNER VON SIEMENS
		Werner von Siemens was born on December 13, 1816, in Lenthe, near Hanover, the fourth of 14 children of a less-than-affluent farmer.
		Werner von Siemens died in Berlin on December 6, 1892.
		Werner showed a keen eye for developing markets and a distinct lack of trepidation about committing himself to business ventures "at the far end of the world." The start of operations in Japan, for example, dates back to the early 1860s, and the company installed China's first electric generator, in Shanghai in 1879.

	siemens
		The conductance of a conductor in siemens is the reciprocal of its resistance in ohms; the siemens was formerly known as the mho or reciprocal ohm.
		In the 19th century, the Siemens’ unit or Siemens’ mercury unit was a unit of electrical resistance introduced in 1860 by Werner von Siemens himself.
		The siemens unit was one of two units of resistance that competed for acceptance (the other being the B.A. unit of resistance) until the definition of the ohm at the First International Electrical Congress (Paris, 1881), after which the siemens’ unit withered.
