The Maentwrog hydroelectric development of the north wales power company
Oct 19 1928 n 3275 p 496-497: Necessary storage capacity has been obtained near village of Trawsfynydd by constructing four dams across outlets to valley; reservoir thus formed will impound water from catchment of 23 sq. mi. Oct 26 1928 n 3276 p 516-517; Main dam is of arch type, with stepped downstream face; water is drawn from reservoir through intake in main dam by way of screening chamber. Nov 16 1928 n 3279 p 605-606, 21 figs. partly on p. 492.: Details of power plant and equipment; impulse turbines constructed by Boving and Co. are of horizontal type; and designed with two runners operating in single casing and keyed to same shaft; governor used is of evolvent type; alternators are English Electric Co., standard lowspeed salient-pole type, designed for maximum output of 6000 kw. at 0.8 power factor, 3-phase current being supplied at pressure of 6600 volts and frequency of 50.
