The vertical lines here represent the vertical bars,in which the breaks are indicated by open spaces. Theblack circles represent the plugs, and are supposed to con-nect the two terminals between which they are 30 represents the ordinary condition of running, andit will be noticed that the cross-bars are not in use.
