Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is a comprehensive guide to electrical control, measurement, and wiring for those working with alternating current systems. The author first establishes the importance of using high voltage on transmission lines to save on conductor expense and explains why generators cannot be built to operate at the high voltages necessary. Transformers are then introduced as the means to change alternating current voltage while maintaining current strength. The author proceeds to discuss transformer losses, how transformers are connected for single and three-phase systems, and the importance of transformer regulation. Next, electrical measurements and instruments are considered, with particular attention to slide-wire bridges, galvanometers, and Wheatstone bridges. Wiring, switchboards, and grounding are then examined, and the author concludes with a thorough overview of switchboard operation. By laying a solid theoretical foundation and providing practical guidance, this book equips readers with the knowledge and skills needed to work effectively on electrical systems, and is a valuable resource for anyone involved in electrical work. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
