Abstract :
Requirements of war will impose unprecedented demands upon many distribution substations. Equipment will be overloaded before extensions can be built, if at all. New construction must be simplified to the bare essentials. Substitute materials must be used. Protection and maintenance must be intensified and operating personnel must be educated to new responsibilities and skills. These are discussed and means are suggested to meet these needs.
