To RHC. {R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} from EFC. {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} X4105 EFC {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} 4/T17.6.25. X.4105. DISTRIBUTION BOX - CUTOUT CONTACTS. Now that 7-GII has returned to the Works, I hope you will shortly be able to carry out the instruction for the fitting thereto of the distribution board with the D type of rubbing contact, as instructed in our EFC {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} 1/T4.6.25. We should also like to have the cutout contact supports made rigid on 98-NK, and 44-PK, and 6-GII (as instructed in our EFC {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} 2/T6.4.25) and in this connection if you have not already prepared parts, one of these might be fitted with the new method instructed in EY/RD2/ML15.6.25. Would you also have fitted for testing here, another distribution board (of which you must have one or two which have been removed from chassis when these special ones have been put on) with this same type of rigid fixed contact point support.
