The chief feature of the alternating board is that the high-tension current is confined to the pit below the board, this beingeffected by the long-arm oil switches which are used through-out the system. The rotor field rheostats are of massive construction, andconsist of cast-iron grids insulated with hard micanite andassembled in frames forming layers in a vertical stack, whichopen top and bottom for thorough ventilation.
