Excerpt from Central Station Rates in Theory and Practice

All the text of this book was published in the latter half of last year in the form of a series of twenty-five consecutive articles in the Electrical Review. The author was pleased to note the widespread interest with which these articles were read and the many requests for putting them into the more permanent and compact form of a book. Hence the book. In revising the text opportunity was taken to rearrange the entire matter in more logical order and also to correct a number of errors.

The author's intention has been to produce a book which should be useful to every student of electric rates, to the beginner as well as to the expert. In consequence of this some parts of the text will be found too elementary for the advanced student, whereas other portions will be of interest to those only who wish to penetrate more deeply into the subject of rates.

These last named portions frequently are of such a nature that the use of mathematics, sometimes even of the differential calculus, is indispensable for the solution of the problems arising. Wherever the use of mathematics seemed unavoidable the respective portion has been separated from the rest of the text, so that the nonmathematical reader can skip the portion in which he is not interested without losing the context.
