New Peru Porcelain Specialties

New Peru Porcelain Specialties.

The accompanying cut illustrates a few of the new porcelain specialties that have recently been presented to the trade through the new catalogue of the Peru Electric Manufacturing company of Peru, Ind.

The two-wire multiple-circuit block and the three-wire circuit block, shown in the group, may be extended for any number of circuits desired. The company claims, too, that all multiple blocks built in sections are infringements upon its patents.

The "new Peru plug" will also be readily distinguished in the group. This plug has a capacity of 25 amperes; is arranged to carry a long fuse and has a ventilated cap. This device is all porcelain.

The two and three-wire multiple-circuit tablet boards are also shown. The two-wire tablet board can be built in any number of circuits from four up. It is absolutely fireproof, and all wire and fuses are covered by porcelain. It can be re-fused in a moment's time and the Peru plug can be used instead of switches. The three-wire board, also equipped with the Peru patent fuse plug, can be built, too, in any number of circuits from four up, and all its fuses and connectors are covered by porcelain. The is very much the same design as the two-wire board, and is absolutely fireproof, and can also be re-fused in a moment's time.

The Peru porcelain transformer fuse plug is a specialty that is well worth investigating. In this fuse-block there is no iron for the current to leak over or jump across. The plug is ventilated for the escape of gas and carries an extra long fuse. The contacts are excellent, and the fuse is easily inserted in the box. The manner of fastening the box to any support as, for instance, a house or a pole, is such as to provide perfect ventilation and insure freedom from moisture.

Another valuable specialty is the Peru covered porcelain mains, represented by the smallest cut in the group. The one shown has a capacity for 10 amperes.
