GREATER
ELECTRIC
PLANT
Besides Elegant Offices Power
Plant to be Enlarged

Besides putting in handsome Of
fees on one of the best business cor
lners in the city, the General Electric
Company is advertising for bids to
put in a larger power plant at Salem.
The Portland General Electric
Company has its plans and specifica-
tions prepared for constructing a
concrete, brick and steel building ad-
joining it's present steam plant on
Mill street. The building will be a
one-story structure about so feet
square, and is designed to receive
the high tension current coming from
Portland very soon at 10000 volts,
and also the current coming from Sill
verton at 10000 volts. A rotary
converter of 1000 kilowatts capaci-
ty is now being made in the East for
installation in this building, which
will supply electric current to the
street cars, both in Salem, and IL
necessary, to the Oregon Electric
Company, building between Salem
and Portland, as well as to CONNER
cial motors in Salem.
Space and foundations are being
provided and the drawings contem-
plate the installation of second
unit of whatever capacity is found
to be necessary a year hence. This
will probably be a 1000 kilowatt ma
chine, and will furnish lighting pow
er as well as power for motors. This
building is designed on very plain
but substantial lines. IL will be an
ornament and a credit to Salem in
its simple solidity and fire proof char
acter. It's construction, from an cleo
trical standpoint, Is the best that
money and skilled modern electrical
engineering can devise. Each trans
former will have its own separate
concrete compartment and all the
switches and sub-station and sub
station wiring will be in separate
compartments. One OF the features
of the building will be its thorough
and carefully designed system of
conduit wiring, bedded into the solid
masonry.
When this sub-statlon is finished
and connected to the transmission
line which Is about to be built from
Portland, as noted In these columns
recently. the steam plant OF the COM
pany will be held in reserve, and,
with the increased capacity which is
now being added, to the extent OF
500 horse power electrical capacity,
the company will have a very modern
and up-to-date plant, with every ia
cility for making its service absolute
ly reliable and satisfactory, so far
as its generating end is concerned.
The estimated cost of this building 2
alone. without any machinery or ap- !,
paratus will be In the neighborhood !
of $4,000. The machinery which is
TO be installed presently |
will cost in the neighborhood OF
s25, 900. This does not include ma
which will be installed in
the future.
