Black History in Automotive: Edmond Berger Invented the Spark Plug

Edmond Berger was born in Bolivia, the city of CumGyauy (Birthdate: Unknown).

Some historians have reported that Edmond Berger invented an early spark plug (sometimes in British English called the sparking plug) on February 2, 1839.

However, Edmond Berger did not patent his invention in France where he created it.

Spark plugs (devices for delivering electric current from an ignition system to the combustion chamber of a spark-ignition engine to ignite the compressed fuel/air mixture by an electric spark, while containing combustion pressure within the engine) are used in internal combustion engines and in 1839 these engines were in the early days of experimentation.
