| To BJ. from Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} Y4622 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}4/LG26. 8. 26. ELLIOTT AMMETER. V1782 It has been suggested by BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} and we agree, that at first Elliott Ammeters will only be fitted to the 20 HP. cars. We shall continue with the Weston Ammeter for the Phantom until we are satisfied that the Elliott people can produce in quantities an instrument as satisfactory as the Weston. We do not consider it is necessary to worry R.{Sir Henry Royce} with this matter because he has already signed the standardisation sheet agreeing to the Elliott Ammeter being fitted and he has also previously agreed to the Weston Ammeter being fitted.
