In this installation all electricwires have been concealed withm thehollow tubing, thereby eliminating the usual unsightly separate conduits, oropen-wiring. Wherever wires extendthrough the frame, as for example, nearthe copper coils and back of the switch-board, standard porcelain condulets arethreaded directly into the tubing.
