For dynamos operating at voltages below the baseframe may be firmly and securely fastened directly on the foundation. For dynamos operating at voltages above the foundation shall be capped with a framing of well-seasoned timber securely fastened thereto, the baseframe being securely fastened to the framing or to the foundation through the framing; both framing and baseframe being secured in such a manner as to prevent lateral motion in either direction, and to give an even bearing surface at every point.

If metal is used to fasten framing or baseframe to the foundation it shall be thoroughly insulated where it passes through them and at all places liable to come in contact with the dynamo shall be countersunk and covered with a moisture-proof insulating compound.

There shall be provided with each dynamo one hand regulator for adjusting the pressure, made entirely of incombustible material; one ampere meter for indicating the current supplied by the dynamo; one voltmeter or pressure-indicator which shall remain constantly in circuit so as to indicate continuously the pressure at the point to which it is connected, and shall be so constructed that the scale is plainly visible at a distance of at least -; one insulating baseframe provided with rails and a suitable device for shifting the position of the dynamo to alter the belt tension; there

shall be provided for the installation one ground detector, or if the circuits have no common junction one ground detector for each circuit which shall continuously indicate the insulation from the ground maintained on both sides throughout the system, and one pair of lightning arresters for the common circuits, or for each circuit if they are kept separate; there shall also be provided such brush jigs, switches, cut-outs, belts and other appliances as are requisite and proper for the operation of the system; all switches and cut-outs to be of the double pole type and mounted on incombustible bases.
