Abstract
IN order to obtain a more fundamental knowledge of the phenomena relating to meter and instrument bearings and to improve such bearings, research has been carried out for a number of years on behalf of the British Electrical and Allied Research Industries Association at the Meter Testing Laboratories of the Northmet Power Company. A paper read by G. F. Shotter before the Institution of Electrical Engineers in London on May 4 gives a brief survey of the various aspects covered by this research, dealing mainly with the sapphire/steel combination but including other combinations of materials.
