Abstract

THE new high-voltage research laboratories of Callender's Cable arid Construction Co., Ltd., are being opened on June 22 by Lord Rutherford, before a distinguished company, which will include the Council of the Institution of Electrical Engineers, by special invitation of the president, Mr. P. V. Hunter. The laboratories occupy the buildings of the old Kensington and dotting Hill Gate Power Station, at 38 Wood Lane, W.12. The large space and headroom provided by these buildings have made them especially suitable for conversion to high-voltage laboratories. Altogether, 30,000 sq. ft. of ground floor space have been equipped as research laboratories, together with associated stores and workshop. The laboratories have been organised and equipped in a manner which will enable research work to be carried out in any field associated with the transmission of electrical power.
