20hp Dynamo 288.
This machine has now been removed from chassis 59II and returned to us by Sales. It is fitted with EGZ brushes and has a 29 segment commutator.
Insulation on 200 volts a.c, OK.
Commutator is in moderately good condition, but the trailing edges of the segments are somewhat burnt.
The brushes are smooth, but have evidently been disturbed and lost their polish by handling. The wear since being fitted in August last is Positive .041", Negative .052", Control .0535".
The mileage covered in this time is not known.

Signed: (Couts)
This Sheet must be filed on completion of the work.
