In the year 1883 there was constructed, in the shops of the Cum- berland Valley Railroad Company, a portable electric light plant which consisted of boiler, steam engine, and one arc lamp generator with a capacity of fifteen 2,000 candle-power open arc lamps. This car operat- ed successfully under the supervision of Charles S. Hull from the very beginning, and in 1884 lighted arc lamps around the Public square for the Centennial, and this same year lighted the grounds for a baseball game which was played at night. This game was played in a field lying East of Third Street and South of King, just about where the Byer Brothers' Green House is located at the present time.


In 1889 this portable electric light plant was rebuilt, under the supervision of Mr. Hull, for a capacity of forty 2,000 candle-power open arc lamps. This plant was frequently used for the lighting of important construction work along the Cumberland Valley Railroad, as well as the lighting of serious wrecks. It was also used for the lighting of the Granger's Picnic Ground at Williams Grove, and many of us recall the lighting of the Mt. Alto Park Grounds. Mr. Hull was a mechanical genius, and one of the beautiful things he created, with this car and an arc lamp, was a fountain which sprayed steam of different colors up above the car roof. Mr. Charles S. Hull will be remembered as a kindly old gentleman, and one of the first to take up seriously the possibility of electric lighting in this section.

On November 29, 1889, after a vote had been taken by the citizens of Chambersburg to increase the indebtedness of the Borough by an amount not exceeding $10,000.00 for the purpose of installing an Electric Light Plant to light the streets of the Borough, a contract was placed for the necessary electrical equipment with the Thompson-Houston Electric Light Company at a price of $9,797.50. This plant was installed solely for furnishing lighting for the streets of the town. The plant was operated from dark in the evenings until twelve o'clock midnight, except on moon- light nights when it was not operated at all.


In 1893, the Borough went into the commercial phase of furnishing current to consumers. It was a far step from this first plant to the present up-to-date efficient plant, and the citizens of Chambersburg are certainly to be congratulated on having had sufficient intelligence to keep this valuable utility for their very own.


This utility was affected by the depression to a greater extent than any other of the Borough's utilities. It will be noted that from 1929 up until 1934, there was a very marked falling off in the output from the plant. Beginning with 1934, however, the output from the plant com- menced to increase, and the maximum annual output that the plant has ever experienced occurred in 1936, during which year the total distributed to consumers was 9,439,105 K. W. H. This is an increase over the year 1935 of 1,512,728 K. W. H.


OUTPUT


1929-6,460,592 kilowatt-hours output. 1930-6,420,232 kilowatt-hours output. 1931-6,206,845 kilowatt-hours output. 1932-5,876,722 kilowatt-hours output. 1933-6,285,080 kilowatt-hours output. 1934-7,253,250 kilowatt-hours output.


1935-7,926,377 kilowatt-hours output. 1936-9,439,105 kilowatt-hours output.


During the year 1936, the peak demand on the plant was 2,700 kilo- watts, which is 200 kilowatts above the capacity of the largest generator in the plant. The peak load on the plant for the year 1937, will un- doubtedly be much higher than 2,700 kilowatts, on account of the fact that several of the larger industries are at the present time making rather extensive improvements in their plants, which will take consider- able additional power, and two other industries are making additions to their plants, which will also require additional power. In addition to the aforementioned, a very large Ice and Cold Storage Plant is being constructed within the Borough, which will eventually require approxi- mately 250 kilowatts. With these developments in mind, it was thought, by the Borough Authorities, than an additional 2,500 kilowatt generating unit, including condensers, should be installed. During the last 15 years, the development of the plant has gotten to the point where very radical changes will have to be made in switch board, buss bars, and switch gear. It was felt that these additions and improvements should be started im- mediately in order that advantage might be taken of the money grants available from the Federal Emergency Administration of Public Works, whose policy has been to contribute 45% of the actual cost of such work. Application was made to the Federal Emergency Administration of Public Works on February 23, 1937, for a money grant in the amount of


45


$79,641.00, or 45% of the total estimated cost of the work, amounting to $176,980.00. With the addition of this new 2,500 kilowatt unit, the total generating capacity of the plant will be brought up to 6,000 kilowatts.


The total revenues in this Department for 1936 were $290,569.64, and the total operating and non-operating expenses were $104,704.34, including $26,251.26 for depreciation, leaving a total net profit of $185,865.30.


Beginning with January 1, 1933, a Standard Public Utilities Account- ing and Bookkeeping System was installed for this department, which involved the making of an appraisal. The Reproduction Value New, less accrued depreciation, as of December 31, 1936, was $532,207.60.

This rate applied only to a restricted service for residential and commercial water heating.


This rate is available only to residential and commercial consumers who are accessible to the distributing system of the Borough of Cham- bersburg Electric Light Department.


The supply of service under this schedule shall be limited to operat- ing periods aggregating not more than twelve hours in each day, or from 9:00 P. M. to 7:00 A. M. the following morning, and from 12:00 noon to 2:00 P. M. This period may, at the option of the Borough, be further restricted or extended.


Service under this schedule is available only for water heaters of not more than 3,000 watts capacity, which shall be furnished, installed, and connected up by the consumer. The Borough of Chambersburg Electric Light Department will furnish a suitable device for automatically re- stricting the supply of current to those hours which the Borough may designate.


This service will be supplied through a separate integrating watt- hour meter and no other appliances other than the water heater shall be connected to this service. Service will be supplied at either 220 volts or 110 volts single, or three phase, at the option of the Borough of Cham- bersburg Electric Light Department.


Water heaters, and all devices connected therewith or appurtenant thereto, shall be so designed and constructed that they will not, under any circumstances, cause radio interference by their operation. In the event that any of the equipment does cause radio interference by reason of its operation, the Borough shall discontinue furnishing current to the installation in which the particular radio interference originates, until such time as new equipment is installed, or the old equipment corrected for radio interference. Water heaters must be controlled automatically so that, under no circumstances, shall both heating elements operate at the same time.

The electric range work is progressing in a very satis- factory manner, there being at the present time 78 electric ranges in service.
