Thus if a large resistance be used, the falling back voltage must be very low, and the head-lamp series winding on the controller will need to be correspondingly fine. Note. The dynamo operation at 80°c and having the 16.5 w added to the field circuit was observed as follows:- OPEN-CIRCUIT VOLTS. Volts | 10.0 | 12.0 | 14.0 | 15.0 | 17.0 Speed | 2500 | 2650 | 2750 | 2800 | 2900 AMPERE-OUTPUT (SCHEDULED VOLTS) Amperes | 0 | 0.5 | 0.6 | 0 Speed | 2700 | 3200 | 3600 | 3800 Signed Y.R.
