With reference to your query re 40 S.W.G. field fuse, we attach copies of EFC {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} 3/T14.11.23 and R4/M17.11.23 in answer to this.

We have 40 S.W.G. field fuses on experimental chassis 3GII, 4GII, 6GII, 7GII and 49-GB, and the sum of the total mileages of these chassis with this fuse in position to date is :- 9760.

When this total has amounted to 10,000 miles we propose again to put the matter up to Mr. Royce.
