Book excerpt: Excerpt from Industrial Electricity It has of course been found necessary to modify and adapt the original French works to the needs Of English readers. The present volume may be accounted as introductory to the rest of the series. It is divided into short chapters, each dealing with a separate branch of practical electricity. On account of the magnitude Of the subject, the inform ation which they supply is necessarily meagre in character, and is only intended to give a general idea of electrical science and its practical applications. The other volumes of the series treat the more important of the branches here touched upon separately and in detail.

There are reasons for the rapidity of the advance, and a glance at the history of the science will Show how it was that electricity suddenly appeared in the commercial world after having passed centuries in the grub-stage in the labora tories of philosophers.

Electricity in its manifold applica tions is so large a factor in the comfort and con venience Of our daily life, SO essential to the industrial organization which embraces every dweller in a civilized land, so important in the development and extension of civilization itself, that a knowledge of its principles and the means through which they are directed to the service of mankind should be a part Of the mental equip ment of everyone who pretends to education in its truest sense. Let anyone stop to consider how he individually would be affected if all elec trical service were suddenly to cease, and he cannot fail to appreciate the claims of electricity to attentive study.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Electric Power and Traction IN common with practically every industry Electrical Engineering has become the centre of a wide and increasing circle of allied trades, of which probably the majority are connected in some way or another with its Power and Traction branches. To the members of such trades and callings, to whom some knowledge of applied Electrical Engineering is desirable if not strictly essential, this book is particularly intended to appeal. It may also be useful to the student as it covers with but small exception purely practical ground, and enters to some extent into those commercial considerations which in the long run must overrule all others. For obvious reasons it is impossible to incorporate in one volume the whole theory and practice of a subject so far reaching as Electric Power and Traction; it therefore becomes necessary at the outset to credit the reader with a certain amount of scientific and technical knowledge: to fix the standard, let us say, such as should naturally have been acquired by observation in the practice of an allied trade and by general reading in an age that is essentially electric.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Looking Forward: The Phenomenal Progress of Electricity in 1912 When in the consideration of the welfare of all nations of the earth a book is written like Bellamy's "Looking Backward," the people of the world not only admire the author's prophecies, but they try to bring about those conditions which are of daily help in the pursuit of happiness and prosperity. The last generation has brought about many new conditions in our daily living. The dawn of another generation has introduced to the people conveniences never before enjoyed in any part of the world. It is, therefore, preeminently fitting that all the citizens of the earth should prepare for the year 1912. On the morning of Decoration Day in that year, those living shall witness the end of a quarter of a century, counting from the year of Bellamy's book in 1887. The purpose of the author in writing this book, Looking Forward, was to attract the attention of the people to the many evidences of ideal conditions which now exist, that were prophesied by Bellamy; also to present to the people the many evidences of other new conditions destined to greatly favor the domestic, social and industrial relations of the people in the pursuit of their daily vocations. It was the intention, likewise, to impress upon the readers not only the marvelous progress of electricity, but the very great share which the electrical industry and its representatives have taken in the endeavor to bring about improved conditions for the people in general.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of Electricity, Vol. 1: A Popular and Practical Historical Account of the Establishment and Wonderful Development of the Electrical Industry The Editors were both, for many years, electrical journalists whose daily work brought them into close contact with all but the very earliest pioneers in the telegraphic art. Acquaintance and friendship with the leading men of the industry during the past thirty five years has enabled them, in the majority of instances, to secure accurate data regarding important events from the actual creators of the art or participants in those events. Suggestions that such a work should be prepared have been repeatedly made, and they feel that they are meeting a long recognized necessity for such an addition to the permanent literature of invention and industry. This history is written in the language of the layman, while at the same time its technical truth will satisfy the scientist. It is thus possible to present an historical narrative at once accurate and authoritative, as well as one thoroughly permeated with that most desirable quality, human interest. The personal sketches have been prepared with the utmost care, and no efforts have been spared to secure authentic portraits of the prominent members of thisgreat industry, both of the past and the present day. Contained within the covers of this volume, the casual reader or the student in search of information will find not only the facts he is seeking, but at the same time he may, by consulting the index, turn to portraits and reliable biographies of the men concerned in the events described.

Can you explain simple circuits, losses, power and efficiency, wiring calcula tions, how generators and motors are installed, how they work, what efficiency means and how to calculate it, and how current for electric lighting and heating is estimated? Know the fundamentals is the cry of the hour. Here is a series of discussion which has appeared in the columns of the Journal of Electricity in cooperation with the Extension Division of the University of California on the all-important subject of elementary laws of electricity. The forwarding of this movement is a matter that strongly appeals to every member of the electrical industry - manufacturers, jobbers, central station men, electrical contractors and dealers - and has received the heartiest endorsement of the electrical indus try from all quarters. These discussions which appeared in the columns of the Journal of Electricity during the year of 1919-1920 under the endorsement of the California Electrical Cooperative Campaign, an organization composed of all mem bers of the electrical industry, have received wide and em phatic endorsement.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Requirements of Electricity in Manufacturing Work Electric light may be supplied from the power mains or from separate generators, as conditions require. In not a few cases of the introduction of electric driving the additional saving has been more than enough to pay for all of the lighting ser vice. The cost of generating electric power can only be a deciding factor when the total cost of power required is large compared to the running expense. The saving in fuel depends upon the cost of fuel, the average load, the amount of shafting and belt ing displaced.

Of epoch making innovations there has been none, but progress has been continuous. As a result, it has been necessary to rewrite the whole, and the expansion of all sections has been so great that in order to keep Within reasonable limits some have had to be abandoned. For this reason, the subject of Fault Localisa tion, as distinguished from Fault Detection, has been omitted, as have also Relays and Over Pressure Devices. Pyrometers, on the other hand, have again been dealt with at some length. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2017-11-30 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Electrical Installations of Electric Light, Power, Traction and Industrial Electrical Machinery, Vol. 4 This volume discusses the more complete installations for electric light and power transmission. With the exceptions Of electrolytic and electro - thermal installations, electricity acts merely as a carrier or transmitter Of the power Of prime movers to some work to be done: and hence so long as the method for the production Of electrical energy from fuel is the only commercially successful one, the prime mover remains the most important element in the complex system. Its economy in fuel, and also the nature Of the fuel it can utilise, is the engineer's chief concern; hence installations from the engineer's point Of view are discussed under the classification to which their fuel belongs. It is a secondary question whether the installation supplies the energy as a continuous current or as alter nating currents. It is necessary, however, to notice the cases in which the one has more advantages than the Other, for neither is universally applicable. The importance Of the transmission Of power in works from prime mover to machines cannot be too strongly impressed. It is not merely by the substitution Of a prime mover by an electro-motor that much advantage is to be gained, but by the abolition Of shaft ing, pulleys, belting, and gear wheels for transmitting the power; these have their legitimate functions in the machines to which electro-motors are attached, the power being distributed among the machines by electric conductors. This being impressed upon power users, they can readily realise the true position and functions Of the dynamo-electric machine and electric-motor in an installation.
