PREFACE TO THE FIFTH EDITION.

In appreciation of the very cordial reception accorded the earlier editions of this book, and in recognition of the fact that vast changes and advances have occurred in every branch of electrical engineering since the original publication, the author feels called upon to issue the present revised and enlarged edition.
The book as now presented, exceeds the previous editions in magnitude by about 600 pages, while the subject matter of every section has been either completely revised and brought up to date, or entirely re-written. The aim throughout has been to supply in exhaustive and condensed form, the data essential to the engineer engaged in any of the branches of the vast domain of electrical engineering. While our conception of the fundamental principles of electrical science can of necessity have undergone no very considerable alteration, those essential details which in effect constitute the working data of the practicing engineer have so altered and grown that books published only a few years ago are already obsolete. It is believed that a stage in the progress of electrical engineering standardization has now been reached wherein a compilation such as the present can be accepted as embodying the vital element to which future advances will appear to a degree in the relation of superficial alterations.
The original plan of dividing the subject into a number of sections and having each revised by an
