HC Deb 02 April 1946 vol 421 cc162-3W
111. Mr. Orr-Ewinģ

asked the Minister of Fuel and Power what proportion of the total units of electricity sold in this country is sold to areas where the voltage is not between 210 and 250 A.C.

Mr. Shinwell:

In 1943 2.2 per cent, of electricity was supplied by undertakings operating entirely on voltages below 210; none was supplied at voltages over 250. Fifty-nine undertakings give part of their supplies at voltages below 210 but their statistics do not show how much is supplied at those voltages.
