EFC. FROM E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} X ORIGINAL 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?
