re. BAKELITE TRACKING.

E2/M7.3.28.

From time to time you have drawn a ttention
to various cases of bakelite tracking on H.T. ignition
parts.

[Handwritten note: ence?]
Do you think this is influenced by the
pressure of the powdered filling, or would the clear
bakelite track as easily due to the charred material being
conductive?
