Excerpt from A Short Course in the Testing of Electrical Machinery
While the notes are being put into printed form specifically for our use, they may possibly be found of use in other schools where the conditions are similar to those at Columbia.
The authors wish to express their indebtedness to Professor Geo. F. Sever, who first developed the electrical laboratory work for the non - electrical students at Columbia, and whose original schedule of experiments served as a guide in arranging this work; also to Mr. F. L. Mason, who has rendered valuable assistance in the preparation of the book.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. The book delves into the fundamental principles of electrical engineering by guiding students through the testing of direct-current machines. It is intended for those seeking a thorough understanding of the characteristics and operation of electrical machines. The book provides a detailed analysis of the behavior of machines, explaining the reasons behind their performance and guiding readers in troubleshooting and efficiency calculations. The author presents a comprehensive exploration of the relationship between current, resistance, and potential in conductors, along with the impact of armature windings, brushes, and cable leads on armature circuit resistance. The book also examines the function and significance of shunt field windings in providing the necessary ampere-turns for the magnetic circuit. The author effectively demonstrates the methods for determining the magnetization and external characteristics of shunt generators and explores the factors influencing the regulation and compounding of compound generators. Through experiments and calculations, the book imparts a deep understanding of motor starting rheostats, efficiency, and the influence of speed on motor characteristics. Overall, this book serves as a valuable resource for students, providing a solid foundation in the intricacies of direct-current machines and their applications. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
