| Contd. -3- EFCl/T10.5.26. The price of the H.T. cable will apparently be approximately 30/- per thousand yards in excess of our present standard H.T. cable, and since about six yards are required per 20 HP. chassis, and approximately double that quantity per 40/50 HP. chassis, this works out at a little more than 2d. more per 20 HP. chassis and 4d. more per 40/50 chassis. It is considered very probable that this material will satisfactorily stand the necessary 10,000 miles test, and that a standardisation sheet for the same will be circulated as soon as circumstances warrant.
