haft. The Lombard governor has a shaft that runsthe ftdl lenrth of the turbines. This controls the gates so that the speedcan be held constant. The foundation is to bo of concrete about 25 feet deep. This hasto be rigid as there are heavy torsional stresses set up in the shaftand if there is excessive vibration there might be trouble due to thebearings heating.

These tv/o tests were made after the units v;ere readyfor operatioji and show very good operating characteristics. The two turbinesthat will (ftrive the exciter units are 7^^^ horse-power each. They run at249 r.p.m. and at full gate give an efficiency of 82,5%, This turbineunit is made up of two units rated at 350 H.P. each and mounted on the
