EFC1/T31.7.22.

EO6c appear to be rather poor. This magnetó seemed to be somewhat affected for the worse by the endurance test.

(18) & (19) Primary and Secondary Resistances:

ZR.6 .34 ohm and 3230 ohms at 18°C.
EO.6 .53 " " 2800 " " 16°C.
EL06 .73 " " 3980 " " 19°C.

(20) Milli-amperes taken by secondary winding at 108 volts A.C. 50~ are as follows :-

Magneto. Horizontal position of armature. Vertical position of armature.

ZR.6. 11.9 7.2
EO6c 15.5 10.3
EL06 9.9 8.2
