During the run we find the speed of the alternating currentmotor to be practically constant on the level as well as on allgrades, as it is dependent practically only on the number of cyclesof the generators. This means that alternating current motorsmust be proportioned so as to be able to draw the maximumweight at abnormal speed on the m
