a coil-case in the oven, and. starting from about 30°c, applying increasing voltages for the leakage readings at each stage of 30°c temperature rise, up to 100°C.

It will be seen that the Stabalite is practically leakless right up to 100°c., whereas the Redmanol always leaks well before this temperature is reached. The Stabalite case was found to be slightly soft immediately on removing from the oven at 100°c. In the table following, the readings for the maximum RMS voltage of 2,420 which was applied in each case are given.
