Vaderwrlter' Position on tb Question
of Proper Electrical Installation.
In view of what has been said relative
to the action of the underwriters in re
gard to the recent Increase of rates on
account of the improper electrical in-
atallatlon In this city, it la only fair that
the public be given an Idea or the under
writers' position in the. case.
On December 24, last, the Portland
office of the Board of Fire Underwriters
Informed the Portland Railway, Light &
Power company that their method or
installation of motors for commercial
purposes was not In accordance with the
National Electrical code, the accepted
authority. The company took no action.
and in March the matter was referred
to the -Board of Fire Underwriters' of
fice in Ban Francisco. To verify the
opinion of the Underwriters' Klectrlcal
Engineers In Portland they sought the
opinion of Professor Charles 1j. Cory.
head of the department or electrical
engineering of the University of Cali
fornia, who reported as follows:
' San Francisco, March 23, 190B.
"Mr. Alfred StiUman, Secretary Execu
tive Committee, Board of Fire. Under
writer of the Pacific, San Francisco,
Cal.
"Dear Sir: My attention has been
called to a communication bearing the
date of March 14, 1908. addressed to you,,
from the Portland office of the Board j
of Fire Underwriters, this communica
tion containing a list of 318 risks, each
of which haa connection with 5S0-volt,
direct-current electrical circuits, so that
electrical energy Is supplied from the
name venerators which furnish elActrln
power for the operation of electsic street
railway trolley -cars with ground re
turns.
"Such grounded 650-volt, direct-current
service to general customers Is absolute
ly wrong and create an undesirable
state of affairs, and one which should
be rectified at the earliest possible moment.
The generally adopted standard for
electrical installations, viz., the National
Electrical code, states specifically that:
lighting and power from railway
wires must not be permitted under any
pretense in the same circuit with trolley
wire with a ground t return except In
electric railway car, electric car house
and their power stations; nor shall the
same dynamo be used for both purposes."
"The practice of furnishing electric
power to individual customers contrary
to the above rule is condemned, not only
by underwriters, but, as I stated In my
opinion rendered to your executive com
mittee of the board in October, 1901,
such electrical service is condemned by
electrical engineers and street railway
managers as well. The National Elec
trical code also forbids such electrical
service In an entirely different section,
where it is stated that:
" 'Two-wire direct-current systems
having no accessible neutral point are
not to be grounded.' .
"Where such power service is done to
the extent reported in Portland, there
exists not only the individual hasard in
each risk were the 550-volt grounded
service is in use, but, owing to the very
large number or such grounded services,
there can but result a complete and se
rious conflagration hazard.
"Very truly yours,
(Signed) "C. L. CORY, .
"Consulting Engineer."
Upon receipt of Professor Cory re
port the following communication was
eent to Mayor lane:
"March 24, 1908
"The Hon. Harry Lane,
"Mayor of the City of Portland. Or.
"Dear Sir: I am instructed to re
spectfully and urgently call you atten
tion to a condition which. It is believed,
can be controlled by your honor and the
honorable council of the city of Port
land, as affecting the public safety. I
enclose a report from the underwriters'
electricians in Portland describing a
method pursued by the Portland Rail
way, Light A Power company, regarded
a highly dangerous by the Association
of Electrical Engineers, whose code Is
accepted by electricians throughout the
United states as conclusive; also a let
ter from Professor C. L. Cory, head of
the electrical department of the Univer
sity of California, copies of the National
Electrical code. Professor Cory.'s opin
ion rendered our executive committee in
October, 1901, and Electrical Fire Haz
ard Pamphlet No. 3, giving a number
of authorities on this subiect.
"The various underwriters having
risks In Portland cannot consistently
disregard the opinion of so high an au
thority as Professor Cory, whlcl is
conveyed in the concluding paragraph of
hi letter. Kacn company is provided
with a duplicate of the list enclosed. If
each conjnany having liability in any of
the buildings mentioned relieves Itself
of that liability. It will still be subject
to a hazard for which, the premltvn at
present charged does not compensate,
since fire o started may be communi
cated to otheT property covered by insurance.
The executive committee 1 confident
that It I 'only necessary to fall your
attention to this Inexcusable violation
of a provision of the one recognized code
of safe electrical Installation, to have It
rectified. Your very turly. j
