Abstract :
MANY things have been done to check the spiralling transmission and distribution costs, such as use of higher voltages for transmission, rerating of existing equipment, and eliminating nonessentials. Possibilities were recognized in the use of aluminum prior to 1950, but plans for experimental installations were abandoned because of inability to clear up important design details.
