ELECTRIC PLANT FOR CAIBARIEN 



The electric plant, illustrated on this page, 

 has been erected in Caiharien. a city on the 

 north coast of Santa Clara Province. This 

 new enterprise is due to the initiative of 

 Mr. P. B. .Anderson and some of the lead- 

 ing capitalists in the town, and these de- 

 cided to put up a plant whicli would be al- 

 most perfect in every one of its de- 

 tails and give the residents of Caibarien 

 a continuous and reliable light and power 

 service. 



The boiler and engine was constructed in 

 Germany, and the electrical equipment, al- 

 ternators, condensers and pumps in the 

 United States from manufacturers repre- 

 sented in Cuba by Sussdorf. Zaldo & Co. 

 Although a small plant of 1.50 k.w. capacity, 

 the ease of operation and the economical 

 results obtained have been very gratify- 

 ing. 



The plant has been working daily without 

 interruption since November last, and the 

 property when complete will represent an 

 investment of about SlOO.OOO.
