Lots of motors and split case pumps were made by Allis in the 1950-60 era and put into power plants.... we have several also... PLUS a 200 MW Steam turbine and Generator set !
--Quite a few electrical breakers and transformers also..

Many of the motors of 480VAC, 4160VAC or better in my facility are Allis, a few say Allis Siemens.
