Electrical features of the Eddystone station

THE ELECTRICAL FEATURES of the Philadelphia Electric Company´s 650-mw Eddystone Station are noteworthy because of the problems created by the use of supercritical pressure turbine-generators, and because of the complexities of integrating this large block of power into the existing system. Reliable and economical solutions of these and associated operating problems were given primary consideration in the execution of all phases of the project, from the planning stages through engineering, design, and construction.
