  • Abstract
    The maintenance of reliability and continuity of electric power service is assumed to be an almost inherent function of the local electric utility company; but how much this reliability depends upon the physical interconnection of power systems is not generally realized. An engineer widely recognized as an authority describes here typical operating and economic advantages based upon experiences with an interconnected and co-ordinated system that extends over most of the area east of the Mississippi River.
