This contractor shall carry to the switchboard location at-- all regulator, exciter, auxiliary, and main wires, leaving the ends coiled up neatly, properly tagged and sufficiently long to make the necessary switchboard connections. All main wires shall have a capacity of at least C. M. per ampere, and no wire smaller than B. & S. or B. W. G. shall be used. All regulator, exciter, and for systems carrying over volts all auxiliary and main wires, shall be insulated with ; all wires of systems carrying over volts shall be run ;

There shall be placed upon this switchboard, in addition to all the dynamo regulating apparatus, such switches, cut-outs and other appliances as are necessary for the proper and convenient manipulation of the circuits, such appliances to be named by each bidder in his proposal.

For the two-wire, direct-current system the appliances and connections shall be such as will permit any dynamo to be added to or taken from parallel circuit without in any manner affecting the operation of the dynamos remaining in circuit, or the candle-power and steadiness of the lamps.

For the three-wire, direct-current system the appliances and connections shall be such as will permit any dynamo on either side to be added to or taken from parallel circuit without in any manner affecting the operation of the dynamos remaining in circuit on that side, or the candle-power and steadiness of the lamps; and a breakdown switch for connecting the two outside wires in case it shall be. come necessary or desirable to operate on the two-wire system.

For the alternating-current system the appliances and connections shall be such as will permit the operation of any dynamo on any circuit or number of circuits, and the cutting in or out of any dy
