MOTION PICTURE PROJECTION 77 peres, can carry that 20 amperes at a pressure of 10 volts o-r 10,000 volts, and as electrical energy is equal to the amount of current multiplied by the voltage, it will readily be seen that the transmitting capacity of a current can be greatly increased by increasing the voltage without increasing the size of the conductor. However, incandescent lamps are usually made for use on a pressure of 110 volts, so it would be necessary to either cut down the voltage to this pressure or connect a number of the lamps in series to take care of the extra pressure. Fig. 1 shows two 110 volt dynamos A and B supplying two independent circuits. In each case five ( > ito Fie £.
