Excerpt from Long-Distance Electric Power Transmission Being a Treatise on the Hydro-Electric Generation of Energy: Its Transformation, Transmission, and Distribution The author has been encouraged to write the book by the demand of engineers and students for information in concise and convenient form, on the kinds of machinery and apparatus used in hydro-electric, high-tension engineer ing, and the construction and operation of high-potential transmission properties. While primarily intended as a book of reference for engineers and a text-book for students, it is believed that with the exception of some portions it can be intelligently read by those educated persons who are seriously looking for information on this fascinating branch of applied science. The book does not claim to present anything new, nor does it claim to be an exhaustive treatise on the subject. Indeed, the field of high-tension power transmission is so large that it is impossible to give more than a résumé of the subject within the compass of this work.
