| Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/EC.S/MT.22.4.41 - 9 - SWITCH BOX. We intend to carry out further tests on the Rover type switchbox. Although the standard R.R. switchbox is a most reliable unit, its size makes it unsuitable for the Myih patch. REGULATOR. The Lucas single contact regulator is giving very good service. We do not expect any trouble with this unit. AMMETER. The Lucas B.M. type ammeter has proved itself and can, if desired, take the place of the Weston instrument. We are fitting it to all the new cars. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/EC. | ||
