The paper gives methods by which the principal performance characteristics of mercury-arc rectifier or inverter equipments that are likely to be of interest to operating engineers, e.g. regulation, power factor, magnitudes of harmonics, etc., can be quickly determined. The methods given are suitable for practical use, and can be applied without expert knowledge of rectifier circuit theory.
