These transformers arenot yet in place, and it was found impracticable to operate atthe lower voltage to Lockland, which is 6 miles north of sub-station No. 1, so the section point was moved 4 miles furthersouth, making the Station No. 2 at 1170 volts feed 10 milesthrough the trolley circuit, which it did successfully. It israther interesting to note that the load upon the three phasesis almost exactly equal with any number of l
