Summary:IN recent years, the Commonwealth Edison Company has adopted bus layouts for generating stations and transmission terminals which differ greatly from those installed in its older stations. The purpose of this paper is to describe these developments and to discuss the application of the ring-bus principle to high-voltage installations. It appears to be an appropriate time to review the characteristics of various bus layouts in view of possible postwar expansion and rehabilitation of existing stations.
