Cyclopedia of applied electricity : a general reference work on direct-current generators and motors, storage batteries, electrochemistry, welding, electric wiring, meters, electric lighting, electric railways, power stations, switchboards, power transmission, alternating-current machinery, telegraphy, etc.
A multi-volume technical reference on applied electricity issued by the American Technical Society in Chicago in 1916, compiled for tradesmen, engineering students, and correspondence-course readers. Halftone photographs of apparatus—relays, switchboard panels, insulators, conduit fittings—sit alongside line-drawn wiring diagrams whose symbols, coils, and resistors read as flat graphic pattern; useful for machine-part silhouettes, circuit-schematic line work, and grainy industrial photo texture.
