The traditional division of electrical engineering into strong and weak current engineering is no longer common today, following a pronounced differentiation in the discipline. For historical purposes, however, the collections need to be traced back to the way they originated so that they can be categorized. This explains why two collections − housed, significantly, in the archetypal home of weak current technology, the Barkhausen Building − are presently exhibited according to their original connection to the subjects of weak current technology and precision engineering. These are the Acoustic-Phonetic Collection and the “elektron” Collections. The latter most closely reflects the divergent paths taken during the development of weak-current technology and precision engineering. As a consequence, it was created from different historical sources and its structure is that of a teaching collection containing museum objects.
