TO CARRY POWER.

EKpsrtmean with Aluminium - Con-
duetor for Electricity.
The already practically foreshadowed
widening use Of aluminium conductors
for electric transmission purposes adds
interest to Lord Kelvin's recently ex.
pressed opinion Of them. The weight
Of aluminium required, he said, is al
most exactly one-half Of the copper
which would produce the same effect.
The diameter of cable is % per cent
in excess Of one made Of copper, and
the cost OF insulation for an under
ground cable is increased in about the
same proportion when We pass from
the copper to aluminium. Aluminium
is not a pleasant metal to deal with,
but its high conductivity will make il
invaluable for overhead transmission,
says Casters Magazine. 1t is true
also that the weight to be supported
on posts is half Of copper, but the sur
face exposed to the wind is greater,
and its strength is not great. The
chief drawback to its use, especially
overhead, is its liability to become rot
ten. This defect does not exist IL
the metal be pure, and especially II
free from sodium. But exposure to
the atmosphere. especially near the

that aluminium is easily oxidized ought
not to condemn it. The same is true
Of iron and steel, and yet we do not
hesitate 10 place structures of these
metals in exposed positions. Only we
paint them; so Lord Kelvin proposes
that we paint or varnish aluminium
conductors wherever necessary. A few
hundred yards of 1A-inch aluminium
wire were put up by Lord Kelvin on a
Scotch estate somewhat over a year
ago and On this line he is watching
the effects Of weather.
