are the tools by which the forces of Nature are shaped to fit the needs of man. For it is the force which Nature has stored in her mighty rivers or fields of coal, that is transformed into the electric current that gives us light, heat and power for our every task.

In designing machinery that fits both the sources of Nature and the needs of men, Westinghouse is supreme. The same care and precision in plans, materials and workmanship is exercised in building the smallest knife switch and the largest generator. That is why all Westinghouse equipment is efficient.

The name Westinghouse is your guarantee of electrical equipment.
