For the Electricians' Information.

Re the wiring of the Body Light etc. on the new voltage control distributor through the ammeter. The ammeter is made to stand an over-load of 90 amps without hurting the instrument. It is therefore in order as despatched from the Works.

They want the customer to realise that when he is using cigar lighter etc., he is taking a heavy discharge out of the battery.
