Electrical news and engineering . Fig. a—Generating Station, Side, Point du Bois. operated by the circuit breakers throws the voltage trans-formers for either set of bus bars onto the feeder wattmeters, so that only one set of voltage transformers isneeded on each bus section. Auxiliary The same comprehensive sys-tem of oil vnnuj. and drying that is used at Point du Bois 58 THE ELECTRICAL NEWS. Fig. 10.—Typical Towers of Winnipeg Municipal Transmission Line. (1) Transportation. (2) Flexible. (3 and 4) Standard Braced. is installed in tiie terminal station. In this case, liowever,oil is dumped into the sewer in an emergency. The cooling-water for the transformers is carried to a wooden cooling-tower from which it is sprayed and falls into a concretetank from which it is pumped back into the transformercooling coils. 5 kw. portable electric heaters are suppliedfor heating the building. A 200 kw. 200,000 volt testingtransformer with regulating transformer for different volt-ages, a 200,000 volt electro-static volt meter, and oil test-ing cups and needle spark gap are provided for makinghigh potential tests of oil and other materials. Distribution System.—From the terminal station thecurrent is distributed at 13,200 volts to three sub-stationslocated in different parts of the city, namely to Sub. No. 1at King street; Sub. No. 2. at McPhillips street, and .Sul).No. 3 at River
