This is the second of three volumes comprising the Design of TVA Projects and is one of a planned series of special reports recording the experience of TVA in carrying out the major phases of its engineering and construction program. It undertakes to explain the engineering work involved in the design of electrical installations for primary water control stations of TVA, including switch-yards constructed at the generating stations but not transmission lines and substations.

This is the third of three volumes comprising the Design of TVA Projects and is one of a planned series of special reports recording the experience of TVA in carrying out the major phases of its engineering and construction program in connection with its hydroelectric projects. This third volume explains the engineering work involved in the design of the mechanical installations for the primary water control structures of TVA, including switchyards constructed at the generating stations. Appurtenances for the control of water, such as gates and cranes, are considered to be accessories of the structures and were included in Volume 1.
