PARAFFIN WAXED PAPER CONDENSERS.

As a result of testing ignition coils made up with paraffin waxed paper, we also wish to test standard condensers also made up with paraffin waxed paper, because in the event on standardisation we shall have to use the same insulating paper for both.

We therefore hand you herewith two paraffin waxed paper condensers Nos. UI65 and SK65.

Will you kindly have the terminal plates modified on these condensers to standard, and the condensers fitted to chassis 14-G4 and 19-EX.

Renumbered PW1 and PW2 respectively.

EFC/HEW.
