-2- Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst.5/MA.19.10.33. Cont'd.{John DeLooze - Company Secretary} As we understand this cable is too large to accomodate in the existing main switch we suggest we could compromise by trying out a cable of cross section midway between the standard and this new cable, but if at all possible in view of the immense advantage of the reduced volt drop we should endeavour to accomodate it by altering dies etc. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst. | ||
