Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Central Station Management and Finance
Electrical engineer and published in that journal during the present year. It has been the aim throughout to develop a practical plan applicable to the vast majority of central stations in this country, and to lay down rules not only for a good scheme of organization, but for a satisfactory basis of account-keeping. The text embodies a large number of forms, blanks, sheets, registers, tickets labels, analyses, etc such as have been in actual use by the writer, and the regular employment of which has added greatly to the efficiency and earning capacity of central stations with which he has been connected. Interspersed in the text will be found many hints and suggestions that deal with station opera tion and that bring out the close relationship between sound engineering and scientific bookkeeping. In a station that is properly conducted, the system of organization that is established in the dynamo-room and the engine-room will run through to the last figure of its balance sheet. The hands of the superintendent or electrical engineer will be immeasurably strengthened by the knowledge he enjoys of the manner in which his work is telling day by day in higher economy of operation and in the growing margin of profit.
While almost any of the blanks may be used individually, the author earnestly recommends a close adherence to the general scheme he has worked out. He has been much gratified by the approval bestowed on the articles not only by parent and local companies, but by leading authorities here and abroad.
