Abstract :
In this letter I offer a few comments on the mechanical development of the transformer by George Westinghouse, which was referred to in the article “Early History of the A-C System in America,” by C. C. Chesney and the writer, published in the March 1936 issue of ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING (pages 228–35), but which was not elaborated. I offer a few comments also on the Stanley alternator.
