  • Abstract
    The rapid increase in the use of electric power equipment in steel plants in the United States during the last 3 decades is outlined briefly in this paper, and the principal types of apparatus now in use are discussed. Power generation and distribution equipment is considered briefly and the types of electric motors used in different kinds of main mill drives are outlined. Synchronous motor and d-c motors are shown to have largely superseded the use of induction motors.
