line voltage

noun

, Electricity.

You can convert this to watts, of course, by multiplying amperage by the line voltage.

If this is done, care should be taken to use a meter having a range sufficient to measure the line voltage.

A leaky cell will be indicated by a reading on the meter equal to the line voltage.

In this way the voltage of each dynamo may be as low as is thought desirable without limiting the total line voltage.

The vital requirement is that the motors must be in series with each other so that the line voltage divides between them.
