Summary "Electric Gas Lighting: How to Install Electric Gas Ignition Apparatus" by H.S. Norrie is a technical publication written in the early 20th century. This manual provides detailed instructions on the installation and maintenance of electric gas lighting systems, including various ignition methods such as jump spark systems and multiple burner setups. The book aims to guide individuals with basic mechanical skills in constructing and operating electric gas lighting systems safely and effectively, particularly in larger buildings like houses, churches, and theaters. At the start of the text, Norrie discusses the advantages of electric gas ignition over traditional methods using matches, noting the associated dangers and inconveniences. He introduces basic principles of electricity and induction, explaining how different types of coils and batteries can be utilized to produce sparks for igniting gas. The opening serves as a primer for subsequent chapters that elaborate on specific components, wiring configurations, and safety measures necessary for successful installation and operation of electric gas lighting. Norrie emphasizes a hands-on approach to creating reliable electric ignition systems while aiming to empower readers to tackle their own projects with confidence.
