TO E. {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} from EFC. {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer}

EFC {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} 5/AD29.4.30.

ELECTRICAL SPEEDOMETER.

Referring to my EFC {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} 5/AD25.4.30 I have received from PN. {Mr Northey} a note of which the attached is a copy. I am replying to this note of PN {Mr Northey} 's to the effect that we consider it would be useful to us to have one of the small alternators of which he speaks for a preliminary test. There is a chance that a bridge type rectifier instrument already in our possession in connection with ignition coil tests will, with the alternator which PN. {Mr Northey} offers to send, make a suitable combination.
