  • Abstract
    Standardization of aircraft equipment is desirable when such standardization does not interfere with efficient operation. Equations developed for the standardization of electrical equipment indicate that the voltage for a large number of airplanes with d-c systems using storage batteries to carry peak loads can be standardized advantageously at 24 volts.
