operated by an automatic switch which is opened and closed by the closing and opening of the closet door. This provides a light immediately the door is opened, while when the door is shut one may be sure that the light has not been left burning. GENERAL Baseboard outlets should be installed in all rooms for the use of vacuum cleaner, fans, or other portable appliances. Bell-ringing transformers which provide current for door bells and buzzers should be installed for each apartment. Emergency gas lights should be provided for the halls, kitchen, dining-room and bathroom. If any special requirements are not provided for in the above recommendations your Lighting Company will be glad to give you expert advice free of charge. They pride themselves on being at your service. WIRING HINTS The service entrance should be of sufficient capacity to care for additional load in the form of electric heating, cooking and other domestic appliances.

Your Lighting Company will be glad to go over your plans with you. |
