I am handing you herewith Condenser No.2842 ex Chassis 38.ZG. together with EP{G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer}'s report.

You will note that the condenser is O.K. and yet the Platinum points quickly burn away. Can you suggest any other cause of this trouble other than a faulty condenser; possibly if the standardised earthing scheme were fitted it would effect a cure.

Would you have this tested and report on same.
