  • Abstract
    AN INTERESTING SERIES of lightning tests was made on Sunday, August 23, by the Westinghouse Electric and Manufacturing Company on each of four 42,000-kva., 220-kv. single-phase transformers. These units are of the new non-oscillating surge-proof type of construction recently developed by this company, which states that the transformers embody features of insulation design effecting greatly improved impulse strength.
