Referring to your sheet on the above, sent to me under cover of EFc {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} 1/AT30.8.19, I would like to point out that in paragraph 2 we should not only define the Voltage of the alternating current, but the number of alternations.

I am assuming that the number of alternations intended in Paragraph 2 is that on the Derby Mains, namely, 40.

Apparently the amount of current taken will vary with the alternations.
