Book Description
Excerpt from Central-Station Electric Lighting: With Notes on the Methods Used for the Distribution of Electricity The art of lighting by Electricity practically dates from ten years ago, and it has during that period received the constant attention of both Electrical Engineers and others, who have applied the greatest scientific knowledge. The result of all this energy appears to be discouraging. Five hundred thousand pounds have been subscribed to carry on the business, and it is doubtful whether the companies which survive have a market value of one-tenth of that sum. The experience may have been bought too dearly, but the era of Central-Station Electric Lighting, which has now commenced, ought to re-establish the position of Electricity in financial circles, and afford a safe and profitable outlet for the surplus capital of the investor who buys gas and water shares to pay four per cent.

Book Description
Excerpt from Central-Station Electric Lighting: With Notes on the Methods Used for the Distribution of Electricity A paper entitled central-station Electric Light ing was contributed by the Author to the Institution of Civil Engineers, and was published in Part II. Of the Minutes, 1886 - 87; the subject-matter has been ex tended and brought up to date, with the object of giving a description of the systems which are prao tically employed in central-station Lighting at home and on the Continent. Details respecting the gene rating plant at these stations are omitted on purpose; technical terms would also be avoided if possible; failing this, it is hoped that the accompanying Glos sary will explain what is unfamiliar. The amendment of the Electric Lighting Act of 1882 has given a fresh stimulus to the industry, and many new enterprises for distributing electricity from central-stations are being prepared, and it is to be hoped that the public will profit by former experience, and will discriminate between the good and the bad schemes which will be offered to them.
