EFFECT OF TEMPERATURE ON MOULDED BAKELITE H.T. WIRING TUBES.

Please find attached copy of my assistant's report WE.16. on tests made on the bench of temperature on moulded bakelite H.T. wiring tubes, also on Vulcanite covered metal tubes as present standard on Phantom II.

In regard to the use of all bakelite wiring tubes, we have experimental sets of these made up out of 20 HP. ignition tubes and these have been instructed for trial on experimental chassis.
