Abstract
IN this book the author gives, in thirty-five short pages, a few practical directions for the installation and management of a dynamo. The instructions given are intended for the use of engineers who have no knowledge of electrical work, but are called upon to undertake the management of a dynamo. It is hardly possible in such circumstances to frame directions which can be intelligently carried out. The dynamo attendant, like every other person in charge of machinery, must really learn by an experience which no manual can replace. The instructions in the text are, however, plainly and simply stated, and deal with some of the more important points connected with the care of dynamos.
