185. Suspension of Lamps.

Where there is but a single wire on a pole a bracket may be used instead of a cross-arm. Where necessary break-arms shall be used to carry wires from the line out to the lamp.

(Note.-Steps may be desirable on lamp poles, if so add to sec. 174, p. 123.)

Lamps shall be suspended at the places

located on the attached map by means of (brackets, mast-arms, cross suspension, etc.) The bottom of the lamp to be not less than above the road

The lamps and fixtures must be secured against damage or interference through ordinary wind storms, and all wires so connected that there shall be a minimum danger of short-circuiting or grounding.

parallel or series wiring with incandescent or arc lamps, or a combination of systems.)

Control.

(Note. The point at which street light- 189. Point of ing circuits will be controlled will depend much on the system adopted and on local conditions; it is sometimes absolutely necessary that they shall be controlled from the station; in other cases for the sake of economy or convenience it is desirable to have them controlled from some other point such as the centre of distribution.)

All street lighting circuits shall be controlled by switches at (location.)

The price shall include lamp, fixtures, extra poles required and labor.
