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.
