Abstract
AN address by Sir Archibald Page, chief engineer of the Central Electricity Board, on the ‘grid’ for electric supply in Great Britain was given recently to the Electrical Association for Women (the Electrical Age, July). Sir Archibald points out that there are three main stages of getting electricity to the consumers' terminals, namely, generation, transmission, and distribution. The Central Electricity Board is primarily concerned with the first and in a less degree with the second of these stages.
