In the Winter Term the phenomena of Electric Transmissions
for Light and for Power at both high and low voltages are
studied, together with electric incandescent and are lamps and their
photometry. The Spring Term is devoted to Electric Traction including
the study of motor capacity and design, train performance,
controllers, brakes, power houses, sub-stations, transmission, rolling
