Sequence Starter main and auxiliary switch unit B with mechanical interlock.
This switch has now been removed from expl 38 chassis 18EX having been used over a mileage of 17150.
The gaps on this switch were arranged to version A, giving a carbon interval gap.
The condition of the main switch contacts were fair only burning of the coppers having taken place due to the imperfect operation of the main carbons. The relay switch contacts were in excellent condition.
The wear on both the main and relay carbons was also quite reasonable.
Signed H.E.W.
This Sheet must be filed on completion of the work.
