  • Abstract
    Although frequencies now are standardized in the melting field and soon will be in the heating tield, most types of furnaces require special equipment. The electrical equipment discussed in this paper includes the frequency converters, the switching, and the capacitors. Typical installations are shown and the advantages and possibilities of water-cooled equipment are mentioned.
