Jaes 151 Fig. 54 contains a photographic illustration of a typical cell assemblyusing the lead-lined wooden tank, and such as used in the stand-by installa-tions of central power and lighting stations. The method of supporting theplates by means of the bus bars which take up on the top of the tank isclearly shown, as is also the method of insulating and supporting the bottomof the tank. In Fig. 55 there is shown the interior of a section of a stand-bybattery installation such as has been described above. In the manufacture of these tanks a good grade of well-seasoned oaklumber should be used and which should also be given several coatings of an.

Good workmanship in fitting the lead lining to the tank as well aslead-burning the seams is also necessary in the manufacture of these tanks. GUMMITE JARS. The Gummite type jar has been extensively used in submarine storagebattery installations in both the French and the English navies, the greaterportion of these jars having been manufactured in France. It is understoodthat the material used in the manufacture of these jars consists of anasphaltum base, or some material of similar consistency, the jars beingmoulded or formed from this material when subjected to high to the special characteristics of this material it is necessary to makecertain variations in the design of t
