Another advantage of this type ofconstruction is the ease with which body castings canbe replaced without the use of special tools or assemblingjigs should they become broken or damaged from burn-ing or short-circuits. The labor required to make re-pairs with this type of construction is very much re-duced, and no trouble arises from loose castings if theclamping screws are carefully tightened and preventedfrom unscrewing by prick-punching the heads. The General Electric Company has also adopted asimilar type of insulation in its recent controllers. Thisconsists of a shaft of hexagonal section wrapped withseveral thicknesses of thin sheet insulation cementedtogether. The body castings fit over this insulation andare held in place by steel keys which are the
