Here is the "Electrician's Mate 3 - Navy Training Courses"
(NAVPERS 10548) in its entirety (or will be eventually). It should provide one of
the Internet's best resources for people seeking a basic electricity course - complete
with examples worked out. See

screen to indicate condition of the arc. (c) The arc lamp consists of: 1. A __________ to
support the carbon feed mechanism. 2. A __________ to support, rotate, and feed the positive
carbon. 3. A metal __________ or obduratior to keep the heat of the arc from the
positive head. (d) The arc lamp has automatic mechanisms for 1. Forced draft __________.
2. Positive carbon __________. 3. __________ of positive carbon. 4.
Negative carbon __________. 5. Starting the __________. (e) The positive carbon is
automatically fed forward to keep the luminous vapor of the arc at the __________. (f) The
positive carbon is automatically fed forward by a motor controlled by a __________ switch exposed to
heat from the arc. (g) The positive carbon must be continuously rotated to keep the arc crater __________.
(h) The positive carbon is constantly rotated by the __________ motor.
7. Complete the following
statements: (a) The reflector of a searchlight is a mirror of __________ shape which collects the
light from the arc and reflects it in a parallel beam. (b) Reflectors are made of:

__________ for signaling. (c) The vane type shutter is used for signaling because of its __________.
9. Complete the following statements: (a) In a current control negative feed, the feeding of the negative
carbon is controlled by balancing the pull of a solenoid, energized by the __________ current, against
the tension of a spring. (b) In a current control negative feed, when the solenoid pull and spring
tension balance, the negative carbon ______ feeding. (c) In a current control negative feed
system, increasing spring tension will __________ arc length.
10. Complete the following statements: (a) In a voltage control negative feed, the feeding of the
negative carbon is controlled by balancing the pull of a solenoid energized by voltage drop across the

pull and spring tension balance, the negative carbon __________ feeding. (c) In a current
control negative feed system, increasing spring tension will __________ arc length.
