ANNUAL REPORT
REPORT OF GAS AND ELECTRIC DEPARTMENT
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen, Town of Middleboro Gentlemen:
The following is the annual report of the Gas and Electric Depart- ment for the year ending December 31, 1951.
Some of the information submitted is similar to that required by Reports to the Massachusetts Department of Public Utilities and to the Federal Power Commission.
GAS
a: 400 ft. of 4" steel main have been added along Bloomfield Ave., beginning at School St.
b: 175 ft. of old, partly blocked, and deteriorated 3" cast iron main have been replaced with new 6" cast iron main on Oak St. near Southwick St. Southwick St. was also cut into this new section.
c: 1623 ft. of 6" mechanical joint cast iron main were installed along Cambridge St. This replaced badly deteriorated 2" and 3" sections of wrought and cast iron main.
d: 45 ft. of 8" cast iron main have been installed at the gas house. Continuation of this line, at some future date, will result in improvements as far as the intersection of Lane and Center Sts. The supply to this point is via an old wrought iron 4" main.
e: 40 gas meters were changed and reset.
f: 50 gas meters were tested and sealed by a represen-
tative of the State Department of Public Utilities. The gas maintenance personnel now make all meter repairs.
From information received, Natural Gas is expected to be available at the Taunton Gas Co., which is our supplier, sometime in the fall of 1952. Worcester and Framingham are already being supplied with Natural Gas. All appliances will need modification of burners and orifices. This is generally done by large crews of trained men at a cost (usually to agency which sells gas to consumers) of about $25.00 per customer. Middleboro has 1675 customers.
Taunton tentatively plans to distribute an intermediate mixed gas when Natural Gas is available. This should ease the conversion prob- lem by allowing more time. Close watch over meters and equipment will have to be maintained by maintenance personnel as Natural Gas is very dry and usually presents new types of problems of distribution. Additional information is being gathered so that we will be as well prepared as possible for the conversion.
The gas holder replacement problem is being investigated further.
Plans are already under way to replace in 1952, a badly dete- riorated, and partly blocked 3" cast iron main, with a new 6" cast iron

main, along Oak St. from Center St. to Southwick St. Besides improv- ing service and the system, the installation of this main and associated valves will permit sectionalizing of a fairly densely populated area. Sectionalizing is usually necessary when making conversions to appli- ances for the use of Natural Gas.

ELECTRIC
a: An improvement was made in the street lighting at Rock Village by changing over from Series to Multiple Circuits.
b: On the underground, three single conductor cables were in- stalled from the corner of Main and Center Sts. to Oak St. (along Center). The new cable will be at 4160 volts and will replace an old 3-conductor 2300-volt cable which is in poor condition and unsuitable for the higher voltage. The new cable will be placed in service as soon as weather permits.
c: On underground street lighting circuits from Electric Light Station to Everett Square, a single conductor was installed. This will permit using 4160 volts instead of 2300 and will reduce conductor losses.
d: Work has started on South Lakeville circuit so that conversion to 4160 volts can be begun early in 1952. Better voltage conditions will result from this change.
e: The 4160 volt circuit has been installed on Pierce St. from Electric Light Station to Cambridge St. Lobl Mfg. Co. and Alberts Shoe Co. have recently been connected to this circuit, and their trans- former structure, which was about ready to collapse, has been replaced by a better and more serviceable arrangement. The Winthrop-Atkins Co. on Pierce St. will soon be connected to this circuit as well as most of the factory and residential load near the circuit.

f: All trucks of the Department have been equipped with two- way radios. A control station also is located at the Town Hall and Elec- tric Light Station. The new arrangement permits contact with all trucks at all times and is particularly valuable in case of emergency.
