REPORT OF MUNICIPAL LIGHT BOARD


Report of Municipal Light Board


The Wakefield Municipal Light Commission presents herewith the twenty-third annual report for the year ending December 31, 1916. The details in connection with the operation of the Plant can be ob- tained by reference to the report of the Manager.


Notwithstanding the increase in the cost of material and labor the operations of the Plant have been successful this year and the con- sumption of both gas and electricity have increased. The cost of material and labor for the coming year will be still further increased and any decrease in rates cannot be considered until conditions become more normal. It is conservative to say that gas extensions for the coming year will cost 40 per cent more than two years ago. Electric extensions will be at about the same rate, therefore, it would seem ad- visable not to make any more extensions than seem absolutely nec- essary.


STREET LIGHTING


There has been a small decrease in the use of electricity for street lighting on account of more efficient lamps being used. The decrease in current used was about 2 per cent, and the number of hours of street lighting outside of the lighting of Wakefield Square was 2892. The lights in the Square have been run 3519 hours.


A new regulator has been purchased and instaned to replace one which was old and inefficient and this change has saved on cur- rent used and also on the life of the lamps. Twelve additional lamps have been placed on the lines, these being on Herbert, Sweetser, Chest- nut, Nahant, Main, Bennett West Water, Crescent Streets and North Avenue.


ELECTRIC DEPARTMENT


At the station two switches on the switchboard have been re- placed with new ones of a heavier type and ones that are adapted to the voltage now used. The old ones were dangerous, both to the men operating them and because of fire hazard.


The increase in current for house lighting has been very marked, but the power current increase has been the more prominent, which is a very desirable feature.


In conjunction with the Bay State Street Railway and the New England Telephone and Telegraph Company many individual poles have been renewed and in many sections considerable stretches of pole lines have been replaced. The line on Main street from Lawrence street to a point beyond Cordis street has been rebuilt as a joint pole line with the Street Railway Company and the Telephone Company, and the number of poles in this locality has been materially decreased.

GAS DEPARTMENT


The necessary repairs in this department have been made. The Boston & Maine Railroad ordered the trestle in the coal sheds used for unloading gas coal rebuilt and a new roof has been placed over the retort house. The report of the Manager shows 3200 feet of gas main extensions and 4.8 per cent increase in the consumption of gas. The purchase of an automobile truck was made during the year, as the in- creased business in the gas and electric departments demanded that something be done to enable prompt service for the citizens in the in- stallation of new meters, correction of such complaints as might arise and emergency work. One horse has been given to Red Acre Farm, as she was so old that she was not salable, and in this way we recog- nize her efficient service in the past. The other horses will be sold as soon as it seems to be necessary in the interest of economy.


On account of the embargo on the railroads and for other rea- sons in connection with the shipment of gas coal there have been many times when there has been a cause for anxiety whether the Plant would obtain the necessary coal for making gas. For this reason, a much larger quantity of water gas has been made, coke being used for this purpose, and gas coal has been stored as far as possible so as to carry the Plant over an emergency in case of trouble in getting shipments of same. For this reason the supply of coke has been limited and it has been a cause of regret that the citizens have been obliged to wait for the filling of orders, also many orders for coke have been declined.


Three gas main extensions were run for the purpose of con- necting existing mains together, and in all cases the pressure has been made more constant and eliminated complaints in the locality.


FIRE ALARM SYSTEM


By vote of the Town, a new box was installed on Pittman aven- ue. Also two boxes which were old and in need of repairs have been replaced by new ones.
