These lamps may be supplied with current either fromthe exciter switchboard or from the 112-volt alternating current,lighting bus-bars direct. In addition to these incandescent lamps,there are seven arc lamps hung on brackets, These lamps are fur-nished with alternating current at iij volts from the lighting bus-
