Abstract
THE author has for some years past had an installation at his country residence for the purpose of lighting it and for working motors which drive the machinery in his large and well-equipped workshop. He has used accumulators, as he informs us, ever since they may be said to have been produced in commercial form in 1882. No expense nor trouble have been spared in making this installation a model one, and experiments have been made on many points in connexion with the subject. As the whole installation has been made and worked under his immediate personal superintendence, he has acquired a considerable amount of experience, the result of which, as far as it regards the management of accumulators, he places before the public in this work.
