What reading level is Power Distribution for Electric Railroads book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

54. Here the outside wires are connected one to an overhead line, the other to the track, while the second overhead line serves as the neutral. The motors may then be connected either on 500 or 1000 volts, an arrangement which would be valuable for interurban work with special motors. This arrangement is not, however, suited for general use, and should be regarded as a mixed system, which, how- ever, is excellently fitted for certain otherwise difficult work. It is closely related to a booster ...system, the booster not being used in the ordinary way to compensate for line loss, but to give a higher working voltage on lines where it is needed. The two dynamos need not be of the same voltage.
The regular three- wire system of Fig. 53 is capable of saving from fifteen to forty per cent "in copper according to the character of the track return. If well balanced it, of course, tends greatly to diminish the electrolytic action on buried conductors and hence is desirable per se. The saving in copper, while by no means as great as in the three-wire system for lighting may be sufficient to pay for the difficulty of installation and the expedient has been SPECIAL METHODS OF DISTRIBUTION.
