We have now received a supply of this, which has been on order for some long time, but on having it tested we find that it blows at 4 amperes instead of at 5 or 6 amperes which we think desirable. Can you please say if we are to use this wire or if it is to be returned, and more suitable wire obtained. In any case the matter is urgent, and we shall be glad to have a quick decision. EP{G.
