All costs of such inspection to be borne by the contractor.

This inspection is a part of the test and the work will not be considered ready for acceptance until the certificate has been delivered to

Rules.

All work shall be done in accordance 18. Insurance with the rules and regulations of

ance.

(Note. The same considerations that 19. Acceptdetermine the character of the tests will also enter largely into the conditions of the acceptance.)

(The purchaser) will assume no liability nor responsibility for any part of the installation until formally accepted in writing.

No part of the installation will be accepted until (the purchaser) is satisfied that it fully complies with the spirit and intent of the specifications.

The acceptance of any portion of the work shall not be construed as a final acceptance.

20. Terms of Payment.

The final acceptance will be given only after the completion of the work contemplated under the specifications according to their true spirit and intent and after the final tests as specified. Such acceptance, however, shall not prejudice any claim which (the purchaser) may have for the replacement of defective material for the time specified.

The date of the completion of the final tests shall be taken as the date of such final acceptance provided such tests prove satisfactory.

(To conform to individual cases.)

INSTALLATION OF DYNAMOS AND SWITCH-
BOARDS.

Low Potential, Direct Current System, Two-
Wire or Three-Wire.

This contractor shall furnish, and, unless otherwise specified, erect the following apparatus and material:

(Note. The following specification is 21. Dynamos. for belted dynamos; for direct-connected, or direct-driven dynamos it must be modified in several particulars, but there is such considerable difference in the methods adopted by different manufacturers for adapting their dynamos for direct-connecting that it is difficult to frame a single specification to cover them all, and at best it would be an awkward affair. The principal points to be covered are the method of connection, such as by slipping the armature over the extended

engine shaft or connecting engine and dynamo shafts by a coupling; the outboard bearing; the method of supporting the fields; the brush-holder support; the extended foundation box, and the speed.

It should also be mentioned where and by whom the dynamo is to be connected to the engine; how the freight and handling charges are to be divided; and where and by whom tests of the combination, if any are to be made before erection, are to be conducted.)
