X.3522 - BRAKE FOR GENERATOR DRIVE.

As requested:-

We return herewith copy of above Standardisation Sheet, with Costs filled in.

If this modification is brought in forthwith, there will be scrap to the amount of £22- 0- 0 as there are now 406 Housings E.51773 in different stages of manufacture going through the Works. This value will increase, as you will readily understand.
