as indicated in diagram - Fuse

[Handwritten annotation near left coil] but out

[Handwritten annotation near switch] positive
This switch must be considered omitted to correspond with the Lucas car system under present consideration.

The combined short circuit current of the main negative and control circuits will be available to blow this fuse if the cutout sticks on, and in normal running, this fuse has considerably less current, viz. that of the main positive brush (see table), to carry, than has the control circuit.
