| V3860 To ROY.{Sir Henry Royce} from EFC. EFC2/T23.4.26. X.3860. MACONITE HIGH TENSION CABLE Answering your ROY{Sir Henry Royce}1/MG21.4.26, some question has arisen as to the effect of heat on the Maconitem high tension cable, the rather undesirable effect having been observed when soldering the connections in making up a set of cables for the car, so it will not be possible at this stage to circulate a standardisation sheet. We have, however, had two sets made up, one for a 40/50 car (already on) and one for a 20 HP., and we shall carefully observe these in use. EFC. | ||
