Power development at Cameron's falls

In December 1920 and March 1921 there were placed in service at Cameron's Falls on the Nipigon River two 10,600-kv-a. 12,000-volt vertical generators driven by water turbines rated at 12,500 h. p. at 72 ft. head. The voltage was stepped up to 110 kv. by three 8000-kv-a. transformers and energy transmitted approximately 80 miles to Port Arthur where thevoltage was changed to 22 kv. by means of three 4000-kv-a. transformers. In 1921 energy was delivered at 110 kv. to a paper mill at Nipigon about 12 miles from the generating station.
