Abstract;The faradization apparatuses in Meiji Era played an important part for the history of electrification in Japan. However there are few data about machines, makers of them, amount of productions and etc. Investigating circuits, structures, dimensions of these machines and unique characters, this research offers some basic data about three machines of battery type and about two Magneto-Electric Machines that were preserved in the Edo-Tokyo Museum, the Toyota Commemorative Museum of Industry and Technology and the National Science Museum. Three battery machines were made by each makers individually in Japan but their structures were very similar. Two Magneto-Electric Machines made by foreign makers were in the same situation too.
