The subject of electrical measurements has received much attention in the literature of electrical engineering. In general, however, the treatment has been from a theoretical or academic point of view. In this volume the author has endeavored to present the subject in a simple, practical manner and from the standpoint of engineers who are actively engaged in making measurements, tests and investigations in the electrical industry. All classes of measurements that the laboratory and testing engineer is ordinarily called upon to make have been covered. The method of treatment and part of the material is the same as that in the authors contribution on this subject to the Fourth Edition of theS tandard Handbook forE lectrical Engineers. Instruments must naturally form a prominent part of any discussion of electrical measurements, but detailed descriptive matter pertaining to commercial instruments has been limited to those instruments in most general use and without which the book would be obviously incomplete. Maximum demand meters have, however, been described rather extensively because they are a comparatively recent development. A short chapter has also been devoted to curve-drawing instruments because of their important part in commercial measurements and in laboratory investigations. The author wishes to acknowledge his obligation to theE lectrical Testing Laboratories for much data and information made available to him; toD r. C. H. Sharp and Mr. Gordon Thompson for reading portions of the proof and making valued criticisms; to those manufacturers who furnished electrotypes; and, finally, to express the most grateful appreciation to his friend Mr. Little M. Dudley for able and enthusiastic assistance in the preparation of the manuscript. The author will appreciate having his attention brought to any errors of omission and commission that the reader may no
