EFC. FROM R.{Sir Henry Royce} R2/M10.12.28. ORIGINAL Copy to B.I. " WOR.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} " BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} " HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} " E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} re. SS.{S. Smith} STARTER. Referring to the above we think it would be better to wire this up with a double pole push button switch in case of any failure of the magnetic switch unit. We require a press button switch made for this purpose. R.{Sir Henry Royce} | ||
