To SFT{Mr Swift}/Mr. Brock. From EFC. (Handwritten: X8781do) EFC3/T27.2.25. PRODUCTION TESTS OF 20 HP. DYNAMOS WITH (Handwritten: X8781do) (Handwritten: <strikethrough>X3604do</strikethrough>) 57 COIL ARMATURES AND EAC. DYNAMOS. Further to our EFC1/T20.2.25 and EFC2/T20.2.25, we understand that your position is now that you have in final working order your jigs for the setting of the commutator corelation to the armature, in eadh case, but that your rigs for the correct testing are not completed. If this is so, i.e. if the machines you are producing are absolutely representative constructionally of what you will produce until further modifications, if any, are instructed from this Dept.. we would like you to let us have early next week one up-to-date model of each dynamo, so that we may ourselves see at this point what the performances of the machines, are, without waiting for the results which you will in due course let us have on the forms provided, and which we should still like to receive at such time as you are in a position to give them to us.
