| BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} FROM E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} Copy to HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} X.7560 E3/M12.9.28. EAC. 10. MAGNETO WIRING. We send herewith drawing LeC. 2593., shewing the above. Extensions have been fitted to the sparking plugs to carry the conductor clear of the surrounding cylinder metal. These ignition plugs are buried more deeply than on the present production Phantoms. V3714 We should like to know if it is considered necessary to use a metal tube on these magneto wires. Regarding the clips for carrying the wire tubes we have shewn these as simple interchangeable pieces of flat steel, and we should like the same scheme used on the brackets carrying the magneto wire tube. At the present time the two halves of the clips on this latter are not interchangeable. E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} | ||
