This book, written in 1883, introduces a new lexicon for the burgeoning field of electricity, most notably coining the term âergometerâ to describe devices measuring the work done by both electrical and prime movers. These types of machines had been used previously, but the author provides a more comprehensive taxonomy for their diverse forms, including absorption ergometers, transmission ergometers, friction ergometers, traction ergometers, and their inventors. The author presents numerous applications and provides context for the historical development of these foundational tools, which allowed for more accurate measurements and testing of electrical systems, advancing the field of electrical engineering as a whole. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
