RE ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS ETC.
------------------------------

are so enormously complicated, and subject to sea water, that one would conceive that a double system of wiring (at least part) would soon be substituted for the earth connections.

I always used the double wiring arrangement on ship work that was done by the company I was with in quite the early days of 1884.
