nLECTRIc TRANSMISSION.

What the Limitations wiz BE Under
Favorable Circumstance.
Commercially considered, successful
electric power transmission hinges on
the cost OF hydraulic rights and their
electrical development on the one hand
and the cost OF locally generated power
on the other. says Casters Magazine.

or examining a large number OF con-
crete cases. Taking these as they
come. 1t is within bounds to say that,
considering transmission OF 500 or
1000 kilowatts, nearly all those at dis
tances no greater than fifteen to TWEEN
ty-five miles will pay. II the output can
be marketed. From twenty-five to
nifty miles many will pay, but the cir
cumstances must be rather favorable.
From fifty to one hundred miles a few
large enterprises under good condl-
lions will exceed. while many will be
OF dubious value. and beyond 100 miles
cases OF probable OF certain success are
rare. but assuredly they do exist.
These limitations are necessarily
rough, but they express the facts as
we have them today. As we get to
working higher and higher voltages at
longer and longer distances the cleo
trical phenomena most likely to cause
trouble are those connected with cleo
trical capacity. chiefly resonance and
lightning. To get these under con-
troll a good bit of hard study and ex-
Pronunciation will be necessary, but
the task is by no means hopeless. For
working out the matter practically a
Transmission Of 1000 or 1000 kllowatts
over 100 or 200 miles in a favorable
climate is step greatly to be desired.
Such transmission is certainly feas-
ible and would pay under good local
conditions. while It is far enough out

valuable lessons upon further exten.
