changes on the south hall switchboard
that any current from to 275 volts
can be turned on automatically.
AT the same time he has cut down
the waste of current from % per cent
to less than per cent of all the volts
supplied by the batteries and used for
power. He has succeeded also In saw
ing labor and materials IN reducing the
length of wires used in the building
from more than a mile to 700 feet.
