| X8710 BY {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} /RD. c .EFC. {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} BY10/G11.1.28. IGNITION COIL AND CONDENSER. X.8700/10. We have obtained samples of an English made paper impregnated with paraffin wax, and I would like to have EFC {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} 's views on the paper in question as to its suitability for use in the above parts, and for comparison with our present standard paper. If EFC. {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} is satisfied that its insulation properties are as good as the present standard, then I would suggest we make up three ignition coils and three condensers to be run by EFC. {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} experimentally on the bench and on cars to try out this particular material. BY. {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} | ||
