X. 2814 - RE BALLAST RESISTANCE WIRE
FROM REMY COIL.

Ni = 88.57
Mn = 2.14
Zn = 1.0
Cu and Fe = traces.
Pb = 5.58.

I do not feel this is quite satisfactory, since the quantity of wire was too small to do an accurate complete analysis. The Lead is also peculiar. If you could let me have some more the above could be checked.
