EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1969 captures a moment in the world of electrical testing and experimentation during the swinging sixties. Two engineers, dressed in white coats, are seen meticulously measuring and timing an electric appliance at a laboratory in Leatherhead, Surrey. The man on the right is holding a stopwatch while his colleague stretches out a piece of flannelette fabric near an artificial coal heater to test its ignition point.
The image exudes an air of industrial innovation and scientific precision as these men work diligently to ensure the quality and safety of electrical appliances for consumers. The sight of them carefully monitoring the experiment with focused expressions on their faces is truly mesmerizing.
In this snapshot of history, we are transported back to a time when technological advancements were rapidly shaping society. The contrast between the modern equipment being tested and the vintage lab setting adds depth to this intriguing scene.
As we gaze upon this fascinating glimpse into the past, we are reminded of the importance of rigorous testing and research in driving progress within the electrical industry. This print serves as a testament to human ingenuity and dedication in harnessing electricity for practical use.
