. Electric railway journal . atus andhigh-tension wiring and the complete diagram of connec-tions for the station. The 33,000-volt line enters the building under a weather-proof hood through 18-in. holes, and passes down the wallthrough a disconnecting switch and a choke coil to thelower room, where it crosses to the high-tension lightning arresters are fastened to the rear wall andseparated from the disconnecting switches and choke coilsby concrete barriers. They are connected through discon-necting switches to the line just after it enters the building. Taps from the high-tension buses pass through discon-necting switches, up through the floor to the oil switches,then down again and through the partition wall to three185-kw, 33,000 to 430-volt transformers connected in delta. The entire high-tension system is designed for 60,000volts, and later, by changing the transformer connections,the may be raised to 52,000 volts, thereby increasingthe power carrying capacity of the whole transmission sys-.
