Voltmeter D shows the dropacross the rheostat; and if the sum of readings C and!) be deducted from thestation pressure, the difference will be the drop in the ground return. … Fig. 73. The station pressure can be taken by changing the lead of voltmeter Cdown to F as shown by the dotted line. The drop on A and its resistance having been found, the trolley-pole canbe swung around and the same data be determined for the circuit B. To Stead the Ground Return Drop Directly.…
