ELECTRICAL KITCHEN IN EDISON BUILDING, CHICAGO ELECTRIC WIRING tors) are armored cable adapted for ordinary indoor work. TypeBM (twin conductors) is adapted for marine wiring. Types DL(single), BXL (twin), and BXL 3 (3 conductors) have the conductorslead-encased, with the steel armor outside, and are especially adaptedfor damp places, such as breweries, stables, and similar places. Type E is used for flexible-cord pendants, and is suitable forfactories, mills, show windows, and other similar places. Type EMi> the same as Type E; but the flexible cord is reinforced, and is suit-able for marine work, for use in damp places, and in all cases where itwill be subject to very rough handling. While this form of wiring has not the advantage of the conduitsystem—namely, that the wires can be withdrawn and new wiresinserted without disturbing the building in anyway whatever—yet ithas many of the advantages of the fle
