X.3014 - LUCAS E.575 DYNAMO.
X.295. - SMITH (T & M) TYPE A DYNAMO.

Further to our Ck {Mr Clark} 2/T4.3.20, we attach further comparative out-put speed curves of the Lucas and Smith dynamos. These were sent to you under cover of our EFC {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} 4/T12.5.19 and show, besides the comparative cutting in speed, the comparative rates of the rise of current both hot and cold.

We attach copies of these curves also to Wor {Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} 's and PN {Mr Northey} 's copies of this note as these were not sent to them at the time.

Ck. {Mr Clark}
