The Committee for Electric and Magnetic Units of the International Electrotechnical Commission at its meeting in Paris, October 5th and 6th, 1933, voted unanimously in favour of the proposal to arrange the system of practical electrotechnical units into a complete absolute system (M.K.S. system), which is intended to remain in use simultaneously with the C.G.S. systems, in accordance with the suggestion advanced by the writer in 1901. The object of this Memorandum is to illustrate the proposal and to explain the principles on which the system is founded.
