We are sending into the Stores two Lucas - C.A.V. type B2 CL1 regulators Nos.30284 and 30285 recently supplied to us by Messrs.Lucas for experimental test. These regulators however are not suitable for our requirements as they permit a current of between 40 and 45 amperes at 13 volts when hot whereas we do not require a current in excess of 25 amperes at 13 volts when hot. Will you therefore please return these regulators to Messrs.Lucas for replacement. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst. | ||
