For the same reasonan ordinary breaker must beset at the maximum, as oth-erwise it would require con-stant attention to keep it set. Again, the use of heavyfuses or high-limit breakers may in cases of short-circuitsinjure apparatus in the power house and on certain partsof the line. This feature, which may be attached to anybreaker, was invented by D. B. Moist and C. W. Young,Harrisburg, Pa., under the supervision of P. F. on the subject of the line department attention.
