COLUMN ABSTRACT German literature on power trans- Books on power formers is covered from 1888 (first book on transformers published any- where, just three years after patent- transformers in ing transformers), up to most recent publications issued in 2019. The pur- pose of the compilation of published German – Part II books on power transformers is to give a historical summary on the top- ic, which may also be useful to other A bibliography 1920 – 1951 specialists in their research.
