“Eight sets of experiments are outlined, in each case preceded by a concise discussion of the operating characteristics of the machine in question. They deal with: (1) Properties of circuits; (2) the alternating current generator; (3) the voltage wave of a generator or of a circuit; (4) the transformer (operation, losses and efficiency); (5) the induction motor (operation and efficiency); (6) the synchronous motor (operation and phase characteristic); (7) the rotary converter (operation when driven from either end); and (8) operation of alternators in parallel.”—Engin.
