Sommario/riassunto

In this Standard are set forth methods for the measurement of test voltages and wave shapes used in dielectric tests of electric apparatus or insulating material. These tests are in three classes: 1. Puncture tests. 2. Flashover tests.3. Voltage proof tests. The tests may involve the use of alternating current, direct current, or surges from surge generators. Different pieces of apparatus may require different dielectric tests, some requiring power frequency or direct current tests only; other apparatus may require surge tests in addition. The specific requirements for any particular type of apparatus will be found in the Standard dealing with that type of apparatus. This Standard deals with the measurements themselves.

Sommario/riassunto

Alexander Hamilton: America's Forgotten Founder describes the character and achievements of a man who was instrumental in casting the form of our government and especially its strong financial structure. His financial innovations renewed the public credit when war debts threatened to swamp the fledgling economy, provided a stable currency system and established a federal revenue system. Hamilton s involvement in the foreign affairs of the new republic assured its unity, sovereignty and rapid economic growth. Born in the West Indies, Alexander Hamilton migrated to America when he was fifteen ye
