| Y 4450 To Ev. {Ivan Evernden - coachwork} from EFC. {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} c. Wcr/Mr. Brock. C. EP. {G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer} EFC {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} 2/T25.8.22. X.3604CF - PRODUCTION TEST OF GOSHAWK IGNITION CONDENSER. We attach copy of specification of production test of the paper dielectric Goshawk ignition condenser. Not having ourselves received condensers within their cases for preliminary test, it will be noted that in Par. (4), we have left the current limits blank, it being considered that the Electrical Production Dept. in testing condensers themselves will fill in these limits to suit the changes occurring in the condensers between the tests taken outside and inside their cases. It is understood that from this point onwards, the Elec. Prod. Dept. will now take over the production testing of these units. For their convenience we attach to Mr. Brock's copy a table of the results obtained by us to date. EFC. {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} | ||
