What is this? 

This is a ‘Thomson mirror galvanometer’ used practically in the laying of transatlantic electrical cables. The galvanometer takes its name from ‘Sir William Thomson’, later to be Lord Kelvin, ‘Kelvin’ chosen and taken from the name of a stream that flows near the University of Glasgow, where Thompson had been Professor of Natural Philosophy for nearly 50 years.
In 1857, an attempt to lay a transatlantic cable failed so Thomson set out with the cable-laying expedition in the summer of 1858, and after several false starts, the first Atlantic cable was successfully completed from Ireland to Newfoundland on 5 August 1858. The cable was hailed as the great triumph of the age, the annihilator of distance, the guarantor of universal peace and understanding.
But the 1858 cable never worked quite right. During laying, the operators had signalled through it quite well using Thomson’s mirror galvanometer, but once the ends were landed and handed over to Whitehouse in Valentia, Ireland, and to his assistants in Newfoundland, they had great difficulty getting their heavy apparatus to work through it.
