CHASSIS 47-G-O. {Mr Oldham}
We are sending you herewith Distribution Box. No.83. which has been removed from the above chassis by Cricklewood.
The Test Dept. have examined the unit and agree that it has broken down on the shunt coils and that the cutout does not function.
I am particularly interested in having your report as to just how and why, in your opinion, the shunt coil has failed.
BY. {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer}
