The threelemaining direct-current rotary panels are the same as theothers except that they have no rotary starting rheostats. Thestation instrument panel has mounted upon it one 700-voltWeston standard voltmeter, one 5000-amp. Weston ammeter,and one 5000-amp. Thomson recording wattmeter. On eachof the feeder panels are one single-pole main switch, one 1200-amp. ammeter, and one 1500-amp. Westinghouse-Brush-typecircuit breaker. A single-pole equalizing knife switch is. ERTERS AT VVATERVLIET SUB-STATION mounted upon a pedestal on the main floor and located betweeneach two rotaries. The high-tension switchboard was built by the GeneralElectric Company, and consists of eight blue Vermont marblepanels, and is also located along the east wall of the of five panels has one 12,000-volt, three-phase oil-breakswitch of 25-amp. capacity, and three high-tension fuse blocksseparated by marble barriers. These panels are used to cut thecurrent in or out of the high-tension side of the transformers;one panel being used for each group of transformers. Thefourth panel has a 12,000-volt, three-phase oil-break switch,one 12,000-volt Thomson voltmeter, and one high-tensionammeter. One of the two remaining panels has one 12,000-voltoil switch, one 12,000-volt ammeter, one power factor meterand one Bristol recording ammeter. Two panels are used tocontrol the incoming lines and the current to the five trans-former controlling pan
