I purchased an electrical engineering textbook today with a copyright date of 1908. This textbook is published by the International Textbook Company.
This is the first book where I have found any reference to grounding.
The center tap of an economy coil (auto-transformer) is brought out from the winding and connected to earth(ground). This is to reduce the pressure of the line conductors to half, in relation to ground.
The 25 ohms has not appeared as of 1908.
Lightning protection is described as spark gaps.
