Excerpt from Industrial Electrical Measuring Instruments
The illustrations are, in almost every case, diagrams showing working principles rather than views of the actual apparatus. Most engineers are already familiar with the outside appear ance of the instruments, so that external views are unnecessary, and photographs of working parts nearly always accentuate unimportant details to the exclusion of essential features.
Wherever possible, diagrams and curves have been given in preference to formulae. Mathematicians will doubtless deplore the almost entire absence of mathematics, but, writing as an engineer, for engineers, the author is strongly of opinion that higher mathematics would be quite out of place. He believes that the only way to get a thorough insight into any phenomenon is to obtain a clear mental picture of what is taking place, and that, except to the mind of the trained mathematician, a mathematical solution too often fails to bridge over that wide gulf, which separates the abstract from the concrete.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the realm of electrical measuring instruments, providing a comprehensive exploration of their history, design, and principles of operation. The author, with expertise in the field, presents a detailed examination of the fundamental concepts, such as accuracy and sources of error, that underpin the design and use of these essential tools. The book delves into the constructional details of various types of measuring instruments, including their cases, scales, springs, pivots, permanent magnets, and shunts. It explores the nuances of controlling springs and weights, the optimization of winding calculations, and the importance of minimizing temperature and damping effects. By delving into the depths of electrical measuring instruments, this book equips readers with a profound understanding of their inner workings and the factors that influence their accuracy and reliability, solidifying their ability to make precise measurements in the field of electrical engineering.
