Re Fuse wire.

The same diameter of copper fuse wire, namely, 30-SWG. is used on both the 40/50 and the 20-HP. chassis throughout, with the exception of the fuse wire used for the shunt of the Lucas dynamo.

The wire supplied by Messrs. Lucas is tinned, but that used on the 20-HP. is not tinned.

I suggest that one or the other should be used for both chassis, as this would reduce and simplify the stocks we have to carry and supply to Depots.
