Confirming our conversation with reference to items for possible standardisation, it seems probable that standardisation sheets for the following will shortly be circulated.

(1) Elliott ammeter. 40/50 and 20 HP.
(2) Finer primary ignition coil. GP.type. 40/50 and 20 HP.
(3) C type cutout contacts with spring with .150" neck and rigid backing. 40/50 and 20 HP.
N.B. It will be remembered that the rigid fixed contact point support and Reynold points have already been standardised.
(4) 40/50 type Klaxon switch for 20 HP.
(5) Stainless steel screws for switch handle. 40/50 and 20 HP.
