Miksa Déri (1854 to 1938) was a Hungarian electrical engineer, inventor and power plant builder, born in Bács. He received a diploma in hydraulic engineering from the Technical University of Vienna in 1877, worked between 1878 and 1882 on river control designs for the Danube and Tisza while studying electrotechnics, and in 1882 joined the Ganz factory as an engineer, later becoming its director. With his partners Károly Zipernowsky and Ottó Bláthy he contributed to the development of the closed iron core transformer and the ZBD model. In 1883 he invented the constant voltage alternating current generator at the Ganz Works, which the source describes as the missing link that made industrial scale AC power generation possible, and he also invented the single phase repulsion motor. He died in Merano, Italy, in 1938.
