| X. 4117 To EFC. {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} BY {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} /RD9/ML1.4.24. I am handing you herewith Condenser No.2842 ex Chassis 38.ZG. together with EP {G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer} 's report. You will note that the condenser is O.K. and yet the Platinum points quickly burn away. Can you suggest any other cause of this trouble other than a faulty condenser; possibly if the standardised earthing scheme were fitted it would effect a cure. Would you have this tested and report on same. BY {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} /RD9 | ||
