Excerpt from Lightning Conductors and Lightning Guards: A Treatise on the Protection of Buildings, of Telegraph Instruments and Submarine Cables, and of Electric Installations Generally From Damage by Atmospheric DischargesTo workers who had been led by experience along something of the same lines as experiment and theory have led me, I attempt to do justice in an appendix.The protection of cables and telegraphic instruments in general from lightning constitutes another branch of the subject, and one that can be treated far more definitely and distinctly than can the protection of buildings. This branch of the subject is discussed at length in Part II., and instruments made by Dr. Alexander Muirhead are there depicted which are now on trial in several important cable stations.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
