X4338 To RHC. {R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} from EFC. {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} c. Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /TMW. EFC {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} 1/T11.5.25. Further to our EFC {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} 4/T28.4.25, of the five items there mentioned :- (1) Redmanol encased coil TR {Capt. F. W. Turner - Finance} 1. This is settled as you have now put this on 8-G.3. unit. (2) Contact breaker lever 2E (fitted with bone grey fibre rubbing block - 2nd. sample) (4) Pad lubrication scheme for cam. New type earthing of condenser case. These three items would apparently be settled by changing the distributor unit from the unit to go on 4-GII with that of the present 8-G3. unit. (3) Dynamo E with annealed copper commutator. This we hope you will return to us. We can give you a suitable old std. dynamo in place of it. (5) Finally approved Goshawk fan No.26. This has now been put on GF.68, thus settling this item.
