Excerpt from Alternating Currents: Their Theory, Generation, and Transformation
IN the following pages an attempt is made to furnish the reader with a general account of the principles, construction, and use of alternate current measuring instruments, generators, motors, and transforming machinery. Special attention is devoted to methods of testing. The first three chapters contain a sketch of alternate-current theory. The author has tried, as far as possible, to exclude everything of purely academic or historical interest; on the other hand, he has not hesitated to devote a good deal of space to matters which are either not generally understood, or which are of too recent origin to have.
