Deficiency of standards for high-voltage high-power rectifier transformers

This paper may be considered as a status report in the development of standards for electronics transformers used with high-vacuum rectifier tubes. The need for adequate standards for this type of transformer has become more pressing as vacuum rectifier tubes of high voltage and high power have been developed to meet the requirements of research and manufacturing operations. Military and commercial applications that are now being developed add to the need for adequate standards.
