• It consisted of one small dynamo of a capacity of two hundred and eighty lights of 10 c. Frank Lewis Dyer. Edison, His Life and Inventions.
• So I was taken up to London to see the dynamo in course of construction and the methods employed; and they insisted I should give them some expression of my views. Frank Lewis Dyer. Edison, His Life and Inventions.
• EDISON had no sooner designed his dynamo in 1879 than he adopted the same form of machine for use as a motor. Frank Lewis Dyer. Edison, His Life and Inventions.
• I wanted a job, he said, and was ambitious to take charge of the dynamo-room. Frank Lewis Dyer. Edison, His Life and Inventions.
• In the _dynamo_, motion produces current. Bertha M. Clark. General Science.
• The station at Berlin comprised five boilers, and six vertical steam-engines driving by belts twelve Edison dynamos, each of about fifty-five horse-power capacity. Frank Lewis Dyer. Edison, His Life and Inventions.
• The Sunbury generating plant consisted of an Armington & Sims engine driving two small Edison dynamos having a total capacity of about four hundred lamps of 16 c. Frank Lewis Dyer. Edison, His Life and Inventions.
• Nothing happened, however, to interfere with the successful running of the station, and for twenty years thereafter the same two dynamos continued to furnish light in Sunbury. Frank Lewis Dyer. Edison, His Life and Inventions.
• It was during this period of inventing a system that so much systematic and continuous work with good results was done by Edison in the design and perfection of dynamos. Frank Lewis Dyer. Edison, His Life and Inventions.
• The engines and dynamos made a horrible racket, from loud and deep groans to a hideous shriek, and the place seemed to be filled with sparks and flames of all colors. Frank Lewis Dyer. Edison, His Life and Inventions.
• With those eight dynamos we had four belts between each engine and the dynamo. Frank Lewis Dyer. Edison, His Life and Inventions.
• In testing dynamos at Goerck Street we had a long flat belt running parallel with the floor, about four inches above it, and travelling four thousand feet a minute. Frank Lewis Dyer. Edison, His Life and Inventions.
• Boilers, engines, dynamos, motors, distribution mains, meters, house-wiring, safety-devices, lamps, and lamp-fixtures--all were vital parts of the whole system. Frank Lewis Dyer. Edison, His Life and Inventions.
• At the Philadelphia Centennial Exposition of 1876, Wallace-Farmer dynamos built at Ansonia, Connecticut, were shown, with the current from which arc lamps were there put in actual service. Frank Lewis Dyer. Edison, His Life and Inventions.
• Two of the Z type dynamos were used for generating the current, which was conveyed to the two rails of the road by underground conductors. Frank Lewis Dyer. Edison, His Life and Inventions.
• At the generating station at Menlo Park four Z dynamos of 110 volts were used, connected two in series, in multiple arc, giving a line voltage of 220. Frank Lewis Dyer. Edison, His Life and Inventions.
• The station equipment at Brockton consisted at first of three dynamos, one of which was so arranged as to supply both sides of the system during light loads by a breakdown switch connection. Frank Lewis Dyer. Edison, His Life and Inventions.
• To light these lamps we run from one to three dynamos, according to the lamps in use at any given time, and we shall start additional dynamos as fast as we can connect more buildings. Frank Lewis Dyer. Edison, His Life and Inventions.
• Although Edison had successfully operated several dynamos in multiple arc two years before--i. Frank Lewis Dyer. Edison, His Life and Inventions.
• For the locomotive a four-wheel iron truck was used, and upon it was mounted one of the long Z type 110-volt Edison dynamos, with a capacity of 75 amperes, which was to be used as a motor. Frank Lewis Dyer. Edison, His Life and Inventions.
