| 6103 EJJ. from Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/RC.{R. Childs} Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/RC.{R. Childs}4/AP.18.8.37 RE-ARRANGEMENT OF PLANT IN ELECTRICAL LABORATORY. Will you please arrange for the starter motor rig in the Laboratory to be wired to the tank battery, as soon as possible (cables to carry 250 amperes Cont.) We also require a switchboard complete with switches, fuses, terminals etc. and the 100 volt mains from Lab. generator connecting to same. The wiring need only be of a temporary nature as re-arrangement will take place as soon as the wall is knocked down and T.T. moves into fresh quarters, allowing dynamo rigs, etc. to be installed therein. In view of this re-arrangement can you please loan us the switchgear etc. until we are finally settled, when we can order the necessary equipment. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/RC.{R.
