Descrizione articolo

Riassunto

Excerpt from Direct and Alternating Current Manual: With Directions for Testing and a Discussion of the Theory of Electrical Apparatus

From the text proper are excluded specialized tests and those that are of limited application or require unusual testing facili ties, such tests being described in the appendices to the several experiments. These appendices thus permit a fuller discussion of some of the details of the tests and various modifications than could be included to advantage in the text proper. The tests in general are those that can be performed in any college laboratory.

No attempt has been made to make the work exhaustive or complete; on the contrary every effort has been made to eliminate matter of secondary importance and that which is of questionable technical or pedagogical value.
