Improving condenser contacts to achieve a more certain metallic connection.

EFC2/T28.5.23. -2- Contd.

Could we not have a design which would give more certain metallic connection ?

In the meanwhile we are hoping to improve the contacts on these parts by having a piece of presspan on each side of the condenser for a limited extent on each side of the centre line, this bringing a more definite and concentrated pressure on the contact than the original method where the presspan was the width of the condenser itself, and was used on one side only.
