Y JOURNAL. 297 THE WESTINGHOUSE STORAGE-BATTERY REGULATINGSYSTEM A storage battery with an automatic regulating systemforms an ideal solution of the problem of keeping a con-stant load on the generating system. This is automaticallyeffected by the regulator controlling the voltage of thebooster in series with the battery. This regulator in turnis controlled by the load conditions. The battery and thebooster .are usually placed across the line in parallel withthe generator circuit, but between it and the load. If desired to regulate an system the battery andbooster are connected across the terminals of a rotaryconverter and the battery charges and discharges by meansof a regulator controlled from the circuit. With thissystem either or circuits can be regulated simul-taneously. In case only an circuit is to be controlleda boosted rotary can be used and the booster eliminated,using a small exciter in its place, which is controlled by EXTERNAL. ■ 11 11 II 1. tiENERATOR AND ROTARY CONVERTER LOAD
