LABORATORY WORK IN ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING.
The Scott Laboratory of Electrical Engineering.—This laboratory
was equipped and endowed by Mrs. Frances Branch Scott, of Richmond,
Va., as a memorial to her late son, an alumnus of this University.
In addition to full sets of electric meters with the appliances
for testing and calibrating them, galvanometers of the best modern
types, standard cells and resistances, standard condensers, and all
other necessary apparatus for minor tests, it contains numerous
pieces of the very best construction. Such are the Wolff potentiometer,
the Siemens and Halske Double Bridge, the Magnetic Induction
apparatus, the Duddell Oscillograph, the Station Photometer,
and so on. It contains also a number of direct current generators
and motors, a two-phase alternator, induction motors of two and
three phases, several pairs of transformers, and all the apparatus
used in testing such machines.
