REPORT OF THE INSPECTOR OF WIRES.


TO THE HONORABLE BOARD OF SELECTMEN OF THE TOWN OF MILFORD, MASS. :-


GENTLEMEN :


I have the honor to submit the second annual report of the inspector of wires, of the town of Milford, Mass.


During the last year. the system of lighting the town has been completely changed, making it necessary to make a great many other changes, most of which have greatly im- proved the conditions of the town.


On Main street the secondary wires have all been re- moved, and one pair of service wires run into the rear of each building, which does away with all service wires on Main street, and all other outside wires on the buildings.


The service in the town has been greatly improved, and the fire hazard reduced by installing a grounding system, which the town has never had before, and which is required by the Underwriters' Rules.


Another great improvement was made by the Milford Electric Light & Power Company, in connecting the trans- formers in smaller units, thereby giving better service, and making it unnecessary to cut off all the lights on one side of Main street, in case of fire, as each block will be independent.


There have been 787 applications for permits to wire buildings for light or power, of which 702 were granted, in- spected and approved by your inspector. During the year there have been 1087 poles erected for light, power and tele- phone use, and there were 475 old poles removed.


There have been 44 motors aggregating 330.5 H P., which have been inspected and approved by your inspector. There have been 139 new meters installed.


125


During the year the following wires have been run for light and power purposes :-


Municipal wires, 145,998 feet. Primaries run in town, 18,105 feet. Secondaries, 477,000 feet. High Tension wire, 53,147 feet. There have been 632 miles of street wires run this year.


There are 544 40-C P, 47 60-C P and 80 100-C P' street lights, and much credit is due the selectmen for the way in which they distributed the lighting, making the town one of the best lighted towns of its size in the state.


There were also installed, 8 Motor Generator Sets, and also a gain of 25 Transformers. All of this work has been in- spected by your inspector.


There are a great many more improvements under way, also an agreement between the New England Telephone & Telegraph Company, the Street Railway Company and the Electric Light & Power Company to use poles jointly, thereby greatly reducing the number of poles on the streets.


In closing I wish to thank the Board of Selectmen for- the courtesies extended during the year.


Respectfully submitted,


J. B. WARNER,


Inspector of Wires ..
