| X.7740 RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} EFC. BY/RD2/W.17-3-30. X 6016 Re :- 40-50 H.P. Chassis No. 23-EX. Distribution Board and Cutout, X .7740 Section S170 : 'D' Scheme 315. Will you please put in hand one Distribution Board and Cutout with additional Connections for the half charge scheme, and we send you herewith the following Blue Prints :- D72627 Distribution Board Base - 1 off. D72628 Terminal, dynamo field - 1 off. D72629 Clip, field fuse, - 1 off. D72632 Coil for cutout, - 1 off. These represent nearly all standard pieces slightly modified. The Base can be made from a standard production piece by slight machining and the addition of D72628 Terminal. The Coil for cutout is quite the standard coil but with one Lead left a little longer. Will you please put this in hand as quickly as possible and we will cover these parts with an L.O.P., as soon as it is ready. We suggest for the time being, the diagram in the distribution board lid{A. J. Lidsey} should be omitted. BY/RD. Duplicate | ||
