604 HANDBOOK OF PROJECTION FOR plish this, connect the two economizers, compensarcs or inductors (an economizer and a compensarc, a compensarc and inductor or an inductor and economizer may be thus connected) to the supply separately, just as though each was to work alone, then connect the secondaries as shown in Fig. 203. Having made this connection, it is permissible to set one transformer at its maximum and the other at its minimum capacity. By this arrangement a very wide range of current flow is available.

It is entirely self-contained, is well built and delivers 40, 50 and 60 amperes to the arc. CAUTION: Before installing see that the voltage rating and cycles on the name plate correspond with that of the current supply. LOCATION AND CONNECTIONS.— The compensarc should be so located that its controlling switch will be within easy reach of the projectionist from working position beside the projector. Any other location will greatly lessen the value of amperage control.
