To RHC. {R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} from EFC. {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer}
EFC {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} 3/AD7.7.30.
X.6006. 40/50 48 COIL HIGH OUTPUT DYNAMO.
We are sending in to you an armature taken from a machine of the above type, 1.24S.HO.
The brushes on this machine,have become noisy and the commutator slightly blackened, both of which appear to be due to a slight irregularity on the surface of the commutator.
We should be pleased if you will have the commutator skimmed as we are preparing this machine for test on a car.
Completed.
EFC {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} /CAP.
