I should consider that 10% tested in this manner would meet the case. If it should happen that all of these later Condensers stand up then I would be prepared to allow them to go on to chassis in the ordinary way, but in the meantime I certainly cannot agree to this being done unless some definite test has been carried out, which, in your opinion, as well as my own, proves the Condensers to be reliable, and not likely to break down under service conditions.
