WESTON INSTRUMENT MODEL 163. No.40.

We are sending this instrument into the stores. Will you please arrange to despatch it to the Makers for overhaul and calibration.
We particularly want the changeover switch attending to. This switch has bad contacts which distort and give irregular readings.

Order No.555.
