Extract from AB.97. 7.1.24.

Dynamo R3 on 7GII.

Fitted 4.10.23 with EG2 bevelled brushes, run 1457 miles and returned to make positive brush bevelling more effective. Run a further 2466 miles (total miles 3923) brushes very good, well polished commutator fairly good, slightly irregular light brown, probably not yet re-surfaced after machining.

The inspection was made with the machine in situ where the control brush is not accessible.
