[D8241Y], Letter from George Harrison Bliss to Thomas Alva Edison, October 13th, 1882
Editor's Notes
thanks for yours of 10th and carbon buttons. In storage batteries, is the current and emf determined by size of plates and the number in series? Asks question about arrangement of lamps in system with 20% loss. TAE marg: reply to battery question. Also, "100 lights should be run on a main having 2.5% loss from a feeder & a second feeder used. The whole thing is to never have but 2.5% loss from a feeder you can lose what you please on the feeder as no lamps are put in . Send sketch of the 2 sets lamps with distance & I can give you the calculation & proper method."
