Suoh armatures are made of (Brown and Sharpe)Norway ironannealed, having a thickness of .Ilk- inoh. The armature, as isshown to a certain extent in Figure 3, moves about a round steelpin 0 as a fuiorum. This pin fits closely into drilled holes inwings of the armature as shown in Figure Figure 4. (12) First among the testa made was that to determine the liftingpower of the magnets for various values of ourrent. The resultsof this test are shown in tabulated form on page and graphicallyin the form of a ourve on page 16 (See Graph ) Under usual conditions of operation of automatio telephoneswitoh magnets, the ourrent is limited by the voltage neooessary owing to the magnets being wound with suoh size wireas to oonveniently oarry a oertain maximum ourrent for a time with-out overheating and possibly destroying the magnets. Tn obtainingdata on page l5the magnet ooils were found to heat very rapidlywhen the higher values of ourrent were used. Graph shows thatmore ourrent is required proportionally to the weight lifted forsmaller than for larger weights. This is to be expeoted when it isremembered that the inertia of the weights, pan and armature mustbe overcome. A second cause for a
