<br />~4 <br /> <br />TUESDA Y <br /> <br />NOVEMBER 13. 1956 <br /> <br />Funds provided in 1955-56 budget <br />Funds provided in 1956-57 budget <br />Total funds provided - - - - <br /> <br />$10,000.00 <br />35,000.00 <br />$45,000.00 <br /> <br />Funds spent or obligated for regulator <br />and breaker in (c) - - - - - - - - - <br /> <br />$18,764.00 <br /> <br />Balance of funds available in 1956-57 budget <br /> <br />$26,236.00 <br /> <br />Amount required above funds already authorized - $ 5,114.00 <br />(Plus cost of land) <br /> <br />The above projects will permit the use at the proposed down- <br />town substation of the three spare transformers we now have <br />(1500 KVA total) for temporary relief until we can get the <br />5000 KVA station in operation in 1957. <br /> <br />Step II: <br />To be authorized at this time for purchase and to be immediately <br />ordered, with delivery and payment scheduled after July 1, 1957 <br />in the 1957-58 budget. <br /> <br />(a) Transformers (5000 KVA) and three <br />circuit breakers with necessary <br />equipment to complete down-town <br />substation <br /> <br />Estimated Cost - Approximately $48,000.00 <br /> <br />(b) One 34.5 KV, 1200 Ampere circuit <br />breaker for installation on line <br />to feed the central (Maple Street) <br />substation and the new down-town <br />substation <br /> <br />Estimated Cost - Approvimately <br /> <br />21,000.00 <br /> <br />(c) Metering equipment and meters for <br />check metering on power purchased <br />from Appalachian Electric Power Company <br />Estimated Cost - Approximately <br /> <br />6,000.00 <br /> <br />(d) Labor for (a), (b) and (c) <br />Estimated Cost - Approximately <br /> <br />5,000.00 <br /> <br />Total Estimated Cost, Step II <br /> <br />$80,000.00 <br /> <br />Step III: <br />By 1960 or 1961 at the latest the system will have grown to the <br />point that an additional substation will be required. Every <br />indication is that for the outer perimeters of the City, the <br />present 4000 volts will require conductor sizes that will not <br />be economically feasible to handle the larger loads. The next <br />substation, therefore, should be installed at 12,000 volts <br />which will better than triple the current carrying capacity of <br />the present primary conductors in the vicinity of the Spruce <br />
