Electrical news and engineering .

This replace-ment is a serious proposition, not only on account of thecost, but also from the fact that larger devices take up moreroom, and often generating and sub-stations are in suchplaces that it is impossible to get the necessary increase ofroom. On the other hand, if at the present time devicesare selected which will have an ultimate breaking capacitylarge enough for any possible increase of the station, theamount of money invested is a))normal in relation to ihcprotection obtained, as the deivces are, necessarily, expensivefor the amount of power they now control, and the increasedcost of investment may run the ]irice per kilowatt of theenergy up a considerab
