Abstract
UNTIL recent years, street lighting in the United States has been almost exclusively by the high-voltage constant-current series system, either direct current or alternating current, and low-voltage constant-potential multiple systems have been used to a very limited extent only. This was for two reasons, one social-political, the other electrical.
