HISTORICAL SKETCH OF CHAMBERSBURG ELECTRIC LIGHT DEPARTMENT


On August 29, 1874, the following named persons applied for a Charter to furnish electric current for lighting in the Borough of Chambersburg, under the name of "The Franklin Electric Company:"


James McKnight and Agent


B. M. Nead Van T. Haulman


B. Frank Gilmore William McKnight


Samuel L. Hawbaker


J. Spoonhour William Nixon William Sellers


W. Lynn Ritchey

The stock in this Company was stated at $25.00 a share, but just how much stock was issued is not a matter of record.


There is some doubt as to the year this Company started to furnish current in Chambersburg, but that it was in business in Chambersburg has been established beyond question. How extensive their business was at that time, it is now impossible to state.


The plant consisted of a belt driven generator using a steam traction engine as power, and the equipment was located in the old brick and weatherboard building known as the "Ebersole Building," which stood immediately on the West bank of the Conococheague Creek on the South side of Lincoln Way West, and which has been demolished by the Western Maryland Railway Com- pany. This was the first electric plant that was ever operated in Chambersburg, and certainly could not have stayed in business very long. Some of the citizens of Chambersburg remember distinctly seeing these electric lamps suspended above the streets, and at that time were impressed with the fact that they did not blow out when the wind blew.


In the year 1883 there was constructed, in the shops of the Cumberland 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 operated 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 bounded on the North by Falling Spring Creek, on the East by what is now North Fourth Street, on the South by what is now East King Street, and on the West by what is now Kennedy Street.


In 1889 this portable electric light plant was rebuilt, under the super- vision 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 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

MUNICIPAL ELECTRIC LIGHT PLANT - 1945


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 town. The plant was operated from dark in the evening until twelve o'clock midnight, except on moonlight 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.

The Demand will be determined by means of a Graphic Demand Meter. The maximum monthly "Demand" to be used for "Billing Demand" will be the highest corrected 15 minute kilovolt Ampere Demand occurring arcoss, or during, "STATION PEAK." Demands occurring across, or during, "STATION OFF PEAK" will not be billed for.


The Demand as indicated by the Graphic Demand Meter will be subject to corrections for Power Factor as Follows :


Indicated Kilo-watt Demand divided by the Average Power Factor of Load, and multiplied by allowable Power Factor of eighty (80%) per cent.


Corrected Demand will be billed for as follows:


First 200 Kilovolt Amperes of Demand per Month $1.50 per K. V. A. All over 200 Kilovolt Amperes of Demand per Month $1.00 per K. V. A.
