To RHC. {R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} from EFC. {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} c. Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /GWEL. X4430 EFCl/T24.3.25. X.4430. BATTERY IGNITION CONDENSERS. On all chassis with the exception of 5-EX, 93-NK, and 7-GII, would you kindly arrange for the battery ignition condenser to be of the latest type now being produced, the older type of the condenser not having the better internal condenser earthing connection. As regards the chassis mentioned, these have special untreated paper condensers with which we desire to continue experimenting. EFC. {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} | ||
