Abstract

The Meteorological Council, being desirous of discussing the photographic traces produced by their electrograph at the Kew Observatory some time since, requested the Kew Committee to institute a series of experiments, with the view of determining the scale value of the instrument, in order to prepare a suitable scale for measuring the curves. The Kew Committee, at their meeting in November, entrusted the matter to me, and accordingly, having obtained the loan of a battery of 300 Bunsen cells, some preliminary experiments were made, which showed that the greatest potential which could be obtained with them was very inadequate for the purpose.
