Power Supplies - Foulridge and Trawden in 1934
Posted: 08 Aug 2013, 15:51
From another group I hang out with , the question of variances in the types of electricity voltages and systems prior to the introduction of the national grid.
Apparently Foulridge and Trawden had 400, 440 and 450V AC supplies (along with, Lochaber; Norton; Tanfield; and Tantobie).
Would these voltage supplies actually have been listed in the book , but for Pumping Stations for the canal ( I think Norton (West Midlands ? and Tanfield were on canal systems too), rather than domestic supplies ?
