We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.

Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.

Quite a large number of projectors may be connected to any lighting system, but this is theoretically wrong, and you are advised to use a proper power-point whenever there is one available. If there is no such point then you should connect your mains-lead to the fuse-box. The wires may usually be held in position by the fuses themselves, and without having to undo any screws. But always choose a pair of fuses supplying a circuit having no other load than that of your own equipment. The cable used for the loud-speaker may have any number of wires inside it, and because of the difficulty in replacing a broken speaker-lead connector, you must pay special attention to preventing the latter from ever becoming loose. To replace a connector to a six-core cable is not an easy job — there are 36 different ways you can do it, but only one is the correct way. And three or four of the other ways are likely to blow a valve or short-circuit something. However, most speaker-leads consist of a two-core cable, and may be reversed without causing any damage. Sometimes it is necessary to use a three-core cable in conjunction with a two-pin adaptor and Fig. 12 shows how this should be done. 5r.o.WI WIRES MUST MOT P&OT&UDE TO PIN Fig. 12 How to connect a 3 core cable to a 2-pin adaptor. 56
