| To EFC. from E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} 31st January, 1919. E1/G31119. X.3362 - LIGHTING INSTALLATION AT WEST WITTERINGHenry Royce's home town. In reply to your memo EFC2/AT23119, you have probably received by now a copy of Mr. Royce's memo R2/G21119 to the Tudor Accumulator Company with reference to the batteries. Referring to the ammeter, Mr. Royce wants a Weston, and says that the 20-0-20 of the Liberty ignition set will do quite well. 12-0-12 would be too small for the current we are using. Regarding switchboards, Mr. Royce remarks that we will make up our own if we can get suitable fittings off you. You will recollect that you have on order for us half a dozen small tumbler switches with bronze covers. To carry out Mr. Royce's suggestion, it is necessary now to secure his approval of a model fuse box. Perhaps you would obtain and send one of these. E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} | ||
