The Cambridge History of American Theatre: Volume 2: 1870-1945

Quantity starts within the post-Civil warfare interval and lines the improvement of yank theater as much as 1945. It discusses the function of vaudeville, eu affects, the increase of the Little Theater flow, altering audiences, modernism, the Federal Theater move, significant actors and the increase of the superstar process, and the achievements of impressive playwrights.

The number of strands making up stranded conductor is an important factor in how well connectors can hold conductors against magnetic forces. See Table 8 of Chapter 9 of the NEC for a listing of normal conductor stranding to be used for circuit-breaker wiring, and see the notes below that table. The NEC requires stranding for conductors of size 8 AWG and larger. Note that very flexible, finely stranded conductor, sometimes called welding cable, should not be used unless the connector is designed for it because the fine stranding is difficult or impossible to constrain under some standard terminal clamps.

The ratings are proven in testing. Because of the benefits and associated limitations of different types of grounding systems, testing of slash voltage-rated circuit breakers is different from the testing of straight voltage-rated circuit breakers. IEEE Std 142™-1991 [B6] discusses grounding considerations in detail. Slash voltage-rated circuit breakers take advantage of the fact that the power system neutral is fixed at ground potential. Table 3-4 indicates the various tests required of MCCBs and ICCBs as a function of the different numbers of poles of the circuit breaker and the different voltage ratings to be applied.
