At the present time it has been developed to the extent of automatic and non-automatic converters, motor-generator sets, booster sets and storage battery reserve capacity.

This type of network is fed from several substations in the area at utilization voltage.

As load densities have increased, the large amounts of copper required, the cost of substation sites and large rotating conversion equipment have made the expansion of the d.c. Network …
