A large number of coilsare kept for each type of armature in use upon the system, sothat the least possible delay will be experienced in rewindingarmatures. The scope of this stock room is also extended toinclude all other supplies which are used in the electrical de-partment, including the insulating paints, mica insulation, etc.,down to machine screws and bolts.
