Standardization in construction and operation as applied to light and power companies

E. P. Peck: In connection with Mr. Sindeband´s paper, the plan, as a whole, is unquestionably right. The details will vary as time goes on. The main thing in a plan of that kind is to be sure that your standards are workable and that there are no unworkable theoretical ideas that some one happens to have put into them. I foresee that he is going to have a good deal of trouble with specialty salesmen. As soon as you standardize and decide to use one man´s equipment, every manufacturer of specialties in the country will concentrate on you to have you change over and use his specialty.
