Dynamo and Motor Defects.

Judging from some of the things told ill the latest annual report of Michael Longridge, chief engineer of the Engine and Boiler Insurance Go of Manchester. the insurance of cleo tric motors would seem to be a high ly speculative business. Taking a general average, one dynamo in twelve has an accident during the year. while one motor in eight may be expected to break down. These are average figures, but in certain indus tries the mortality if one may use the term, is much higher, since, on the average of motors employed in collieries, one in three breaks down annually; while of those used in actual coal cutting, the casualty rate is as high as 50 per cent. Further. this class Of machine suffers from general deterioration to a marked degree. In the case of motors, fully one-fourth the failures arise from old age. The insulation in many instances is found affected to such an extent that. II disturbed it falls to pieces, and dam age to a single conductor, therefore involves the complete rewinding of the armature Overlooking, as a cause of failure, is apparently less common, but is still responsible for one seventh Of the total motor breakdowns.-Cas- siers Magazine.
