SFT.{Mr Swift} from BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} c. to Ormerod. c. to EFC. X. 2641. BY3/P4.9.19. X.2641. X.3034. RE PUSH BUTTON SWITCH & MAIN SWITCH TESTING. Mr. Clarke informs me that he considers the above parts could be dealt with to greater davantage in the Electrical Production Department now than they can in the Experimental Dept. I understand that Mr. Watson is quite capable of carrying out the tests in question, and there should be no difficulty in putting this idea into execution at once. I would like Mr. Ormerod to discuss the question personally with Mr. Watson as it appears to me that Mr. Clarke's ideas on the subject are quite in order. If, however, there appears to be any hitch in regard to apparatus or any other points, I wish to have this mat-ter discussed between Mr. Ormerod, Mr. Watson and myself, without delay. It is proposed that Mr. Watson should take over the testing commencing from next Monday, the 8th Inst. BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} | ||
