| RR 238 (300 Bks.) (SF 152. 6-11-18.) MP 197880 ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. INSTRUCTIONS. To 19 Order No Customer's No. 5 for two weeks, without the modification on one oiling, during the same period. Further tests will be carried out on the same lines, in order to prove the point. The only hitherto untried feature in the second test on Contact points, above mentioned, is the use of a paper dielectric condenser. It is possible that owing to the slight damping in this type, due to dielectric hysteresis, there is less destructive effect due to very high frequency oscillatory splashes. (Cont'd) Signed This Sheet must be filed on completion of the work. | ||
