In asimilar manner we should expect that if there are any small harmonics ROSA. ABSOLUTE MEASUREMENT OF INDUCTANCE. 137 of these frequencies in the current through the circuit ABC, theywould be multiplied by 114 and 153, respectively, in such a condensercurrent in parallel with ABC On the other hand, if no such har-monics are found in the condenser current we may be sure that thesmall values found by analysis in the inductive current were, as wesupposed, residual errors.
