the Vienna Universal Exposition. In this case a Gramme machine used as a motor towork a pump was run bv the current produced by a similar machine connected by more thana mile of cable, and putin motion by a gas engine.

The efficiency of transmission is as the ratio of the electromotive force of the generator, E, to that of the motor (counter E.M.F.), e, that is, efficiency = =,. As this E expression does not contain the factor of…
