  • Abstract
    THE TERM “standardization” is applied to very diverse fields of activity. This article deals principally with the procedures and activities of the American Standards Association with particular reference to engineering standards of interest to the AIEE. The Institute long has been a leader in this field and was one of a small group of organizations which formed the American Engineering Standards Committee (predecessor of the American Standards Association) in 1918.
