X.4421 - CHASSIS 79-AO - CUTOUT.

On the cutout which we had for examination from 79-AO, we noticed that the flexible conducting the current to the moving cutout lever was on the stiff side and could actually be made to cause a difference in the cutting in point by being displaced.

The flexible in use at present may be O.K. in this respect, but we consider it a point which is worth while mentioning to you.
