Inthe figure the branch wires are showndouble, but it is evident that they couldb e single. We said that all arrangements hadbeen made to make the system a perfectlypractical one, and of that we will soon beable to judge. Let us examine first howthe lamp supports and the lamps them-selves are disposed. As has been seen,they are formed of glass globes of ovoidform, cemented into copper sleeves bymeans of plaster and screwed into cylin-drical cavities terminating the are a kind of arm which can beadapted to brackets or chandeliers, or b
