and generators on the same axle, and control devices.
Bm Advinistration building,, 14 x 10 ms two stories, brick
construction, with a tile roof.
D. Distributor station. The switches, which were manufactured
by Brown-Boveri Works A.G., Vienna,, are oil switches (oljna
stikala) with voltage and current transformers (napetostni
in tokovni transformatorji).*
E. )
F.) Single-story workshops, stone construction, with tile roof.
G. )
Darns Made of reinforced concrete with four locks. The fourth
look, on the right bank of tAe Drava River, was constructed
to permit passage of rafts and other small river craft, The
operation of the flood gates is automatic,
1? The Fala Hydroelectric Plant is on the Drava Rivers one kilometer from the
Fala railway station on the Maribor-Dravograd railway line.
The total potential output of the power plant is 42,000 Iva, but the in.-
stallations, which w are built during and after the First World Wars are
in poor condition and actual output of electric energy, therefore, does
not exceed 36,000 or 37,000 Kva.
