GLOVERITE & SUPER-GLOVER H.T. CABLE.
With reference to the attached, our tests have shown that Gloverite is not at all suitable and is not as good, we find, as the old standard Glover cable which is now superseded.
The super-Glover cable appears, so far as our tests have gone, equally good with our present standard, but its price is prohibitive as compared with that other.
We are making further comparative tests with super-Glover cable and our present standard, as it appears that it may have some small advantages, which advantages however will take a considerable time to prove.
