| XI918.C. To Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from E. {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} c. By. {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} E1/MJ24.3.30. RE - IMPROVED K.1. K.L.G. PLUGS FOR 20 HP+ When signing a standardisation sheet for the above I did not realise that these were the plugs with stepped mica insulators. Having since learnt that this is so, I have withdrawn my signature as these wrapped and stepped insulators appear to me to be a horrible invention more likely to give trouble than satisfactory service.
