Présentation de l'éditeur

While much has been written in connection with almost every section or branch of electrical engineei-ing, including dynamos, motors, transformers, cells, and appliances of almost every description, the branch dealing with the subject of measuring instruments used in electrical engineering has received little or no attention from the literary section of the electrical community. The fact that, without these measuring instruments, the appliances just enumerated could never have been evolved, or, being evolved, could never have been successfuU yutilized, constitutes, therefore, a sufficient reason for bringing the present work before the public. Since the electrical engineering industry began to show signs of rapid development, numerous types and forms of measuring instruments have been devised by diflferent inventors. Many of these are now obsolete, having given place to instruments with greater refinements and on better principles. Though several of these obsolete types are extremely interesting, and, indeed, instructive, they have not been described in the present work. If information regarding them is required, it will be found in the abridged patent specifications since about 1880. Only those instruments in actual and extensive use at the present day are here considered, and these form so large a body that it seems better not to try to deal with the historical portion of the subject. I have divided the subject into chapters, each treating of difierent types or makes of instruments working on the same principle, and I have endeavoured to describe and illustrate each instrument as clearly and simply as possible.
