Abstract :
AT a point on the Little Tennessee River a short distance above the mouth of the Cheoah River in North Carolina, the Knoxville Power Company has completed within the past year, the first portion of an extensive hydroelectric development. The ultimate development will require the tying together of a number of plants scattered over a large area and it was therefore necessary to choose powerhouse and transmission line equipment which would be best adapted to the entire system.
