Each of these exciter motor panelsalso has a hand operated oil-break main switch and a General Elec-tric Type-T A votage regulator. Ry the use of these regulators ismade possible the operation of the incandescent lighting systemdrawing current from the same generators which supply power forthe operation of the street railway.
