Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Handbook of Electrical Testing
IN the present Edition I have not only taken advantage, as far as possible, of the many friendly suggestions which have been made to me (especially by Dr. A. Muirhead) for the improve ment of the original work, but have added a considerable amount of new matter, besides thoroughly revising the old. I have more particularly to thank Messrs. Elliott Brothers, Messrs. Latimer Clark, Muirhead and Co., Mr. B. Poll (of Messrs. Johnson and Phillips's), and Mr. P. J olin, for the illustrations of apparatus which have been added. I am also greatly indebted to Messrs. W. T. Glover and Co. For per mission to insert their Table (iii) of the Weights, Resist ances, &c., of Pure Copper Wire, and to Mr. Herbert Taylor for the Table (ix) of Data of recent Submarine Cables.
