The tests were conducted in the same manner as are the regularcommercial tests of all turbines built in the Westinghouse number of tests was. however, greater than is usually called for,and extreme accuracy was secured by the duplication of all instru-ments. Throughout the several tests all readings, including weigh-ings of condensed steam, were made at intervals of five minutes. Measurement of Load.—The electrical load was applied by mea
