Theinterrupter is then connected to the coil and con-denser and the motor to the supply mains. Mostof these interrupters are provided with an arrange-ment of contacts and terminals, so that it is pos-sible to double the number of primary interruptions, and so increase theeffect in the secondary or tube circuit; other types have an adjustablewedge-shaped contact. Great attention should be paid to the cleanlinessnot only of the interrupter but also of the motor, and especially of thecommutator and oil cups. To fill the interrupter with gas one tap isconnected to the gas supply by a rubber tube and the other tap is left. FlG. 1 -1.—Dreadnought inter-rupter. Watson.)
