| HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} FROM E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} [strikethrough]C. to SC. WOB. DV.[/strikethrough] CONTINENTAL P. 2. INDUCTION PIPES. X7120 We send herewith print of LeC. 2996, showing the pipes we should like to have. You will notice that we have cut off the back water extensions at each end but have left the ends quite square. We have done this because it is so difficult to make a satisfactory job of the HT. wiring otherwise, and so far as we are aware it is not definitely known that the backwaters are required. We suggest that the experimental steel pipes you have could be sawn off square and tested forthwith to determine this point. E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} | ||
