Report of the Electric Light Department
TO THE CITIZENS OF THE TOWN OF BRAINTREE:
YOUR COMMISSIONERS SUBMIT THE ANNUAL REPORT OF THE BRAINTREE ELECTRIC LIGHT DEPARTMENT FOR THE YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31, 1946.
NORTON P. POTTER, FRANK P. LORD, SHILLEY A. NEAL, Commissioners.
To: MUNICIPAL LIGHT BOARD Norton P. Potter, Chairman Frank P. Lord, Secretary Shelley A. Neal, Third Member.
Gentlemen:
Herewith is submitted the report of the Municipal Electric Light Department for the year ending December 31, 1946:
There has been a decrease in the kilowatt hour output due chiefly to changes in the requirements of some of our large power customers but with a notable increase in usage by the existing customers and addition of new services the Revenue has exceeded our estimates for the year:

The new boiler installation has been delayed due to difficulties . in obtaining deliveries of critical material. The program is such that we hope to have it completed by April 1, 1947. The Department has planned to install a new underground system for the 13,800 volt high tension line to serve the power and residential customers in the
198
South Braintree and Highlands section. Work will be started on this construction in early Spring. This expansion is necessary to take care of increasing demands from that part of the Town. We have installed a new feeder for North Braintree and have also in- stalled a new line to the Great Pond Pumping Station to take care of additional capacity at that Plant. Street lighting system has been improved by the addition of thirty new lights and we have requisitions for several more which are held up on account of necessary materials.
New services increased 226, making a total of 6188 now con- nected.
I wish to express my appreciation to the Commissioners, Town . Officials, Customers and Employees for their co-operation during this past year.
Following is presented the essential details showing the physical and operating conditions as prepared in accordance with the annual report to the Department of Public Utilities.
Respectfully submitted, ERNEST T. FULTON, Manager.
