-7- Contd. C terminal of the distribution box, reasons for this having been given in our report EFC2/TS.18.10.27. There does not appear to be any particular reason why this should not be fed from the top side of the field fuse as in the case of the voltmeter, except that it is not quite so convenient in wiring. On the contrary, in the case of the danger lamp unit there is a reason for supplying this from the B terminal of the distribution box, viz. that it would also give evidence of something wrong if the dynamo armature fuse were removed or melted, for precisely the same reason that in the case of the cutout shunt coil with this connection that coil might be roasted in these circumstances, as explained in our report referred to (EFC2/TS.10.27). N.B. Further portion on auto switch will follow. EFC. | ||
