| R.R.285. (100 T) (N G.{Mr Griffiths - Chief Accountant / Mr Gnapp} 543. 13-5-20) G.{Mr Griffiths - Chief Accountant / Mr Gnapp} 933 Extract from R10/E12.3.20. X.802. I want you to send me specimens of the wire we have arranged to be made at Glovers with and without ferflex armouring, and the current that each conductor is intended to carry. If you could arrange this in a box or on a board with the data, it would be useful in case we do any other wiring work. The best scheme would be to keep it in a little shut box, like drawing instruments. It need not be elaborate or expensive. Mr. Elliott has the particulars we settled here, but I think we ought to have the resultant models. | ||
