Abstract :
The high-tension transmission committee of the Institute wishes at this time to call the attention of members of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers to the plan and work of a joint committee of the National Electric Light Association, the American Railway Engineering and Maintenance of Way Association, and the American Electric Railway Association, which is preparing an overhead crossing specification applicable to practically all aerial crossings of electric power wires over telephone or railway systems, and which expects to secure the adoption of this specification, when completed, by general consent, as the standard specification for such crossings.
