Title
[D8227V], Letter from Charles Lorenzo Clarke to Thomas Alva Edison, June 14th, 1882
Editor's Notes
Has written Batchelor 2 long letters in past 2 wks wrt wiring, safety-catches, connecting dynamos, etc. "In estimating on conductors for transmission of power in mountainous districts what do you consider to be the safe, and proper E.M.F. to use, and not so great as to make the armatures liable to cross?" TAE: "Increased Emf dont make the armature cross its the short cktg causing heavy load that does the biz & this heavy load is terrible when there is a high Emf. I think 1000 volts for ordinary cases & never higher than 1500"
