Washington, D. C. War Department, 1944. Presumed first edition/first printing thus. Wraps. vi, 23 pages, illustrations, diagrams. Includes a maintenance parts list. Stamp and writing on front cover. Pencil erasure residue on title pages. A dynamo is an electrical generator that produces direct current with the use of a commutator. Dynamos were the first electrical generators capable of delivering power for industry, and the foundation upon which many other later electric-power conversion devices were based, including the electric motor, the alternating-current alternator, and the rotary converter.

These test sets are a dynamotor test used primarily to measure the input and output characteristics of low-wattage dynamotors. The equipment is designed for d-c measurements on low-voltage, high-current input, and for high voltage, low current output. This type of WWII era technical manual on military equipment is increasingly rare. This item would be of particular value to military museums, restoration facilities, military equipment collectors, and military technologists.
Condition: Good. No dust jacket as issued.
