and early in the following year MacLaren went back to America,
where for thirty years he was professor of electrical engineering
at Princeton. As acting chief electrical engineer, Westinghouse
had in October 1904 sent over J. S. Peck, a graduate of Cornell
and for some time concerned with transformer design and lightning
arrester development at Pittsburgh. Peck continued to guide
the Company's electrical design work for the next thirtysix
years.
 M.
A. McLean was styled 'chief mechanical engineer, electrical
department' and controlled the drawing office with its staff
of twenty-four Americans. A Lanarkshire man, McLean had sailed
for America in 1892 and had been engaged on motor design at
Pittsburgh. Within a few months of his appointment in 1901
he was issuing information on standards to coordinate drawing
office practice, and by 1903 he had formed a standards section—the
germ of the active interest to be taken by the Company in
standardization. |
