DYNAMO ON 19-EX.

Referring to your PN{Mr Northey}7/PHS.7.32, the dynamo on 19-EX is not a standard machine but an experimental plain shunt machine designed to run with the C.A.V. voltage regulator fitted to this car.

We cannot understand, however, why this dynamo should have given trouble as the armature is standard and the electrical loading no more than standard. We will investigate the trouble fully when the dynamo is available off the chassis.
