Substation plant of new South Wales government railways and tramway system of Sydney; adoption of Brown-Boveri mercury-arc rectifiers not only simplified service conditions of N.S.W. Government railway substations, and reduced operation costs by increasing o.a. efficiency of plants, but also considerably lowered initial cost of substations; tables showing how costs of three 1500-kw. 1500-volt rotary-converter units at Belmore compare with those of identical rectifier substation at Epping.
