The switch door shown in the closed position during test-fitting after replacement hinges had been made. 6 January 2008.

This picture shows the traction motor contactors 6 and 5 (l-r) and the main earthing and neutral terminal bars. Three of the six traction motor contactors have auxiliary contacts fitted to them (M4, 5 and 6) for control wiring. As the three motor contactors we obtained for these positions were all missing their auxiliary contacts and paxolin actuating arms, an arm was removed from a spare motor contactor, fitted to an overhauled auxiliary contact block, which was fitted to M6 and tested. 6 January 2008.

Another picture showing the overhauled replacement traction motor contactors 6, 5 and 4 (l-r) and the main earthing and neutral terminal bars (below). The newly fitted arm and overhauled auxiliary contact block on M6 was found to operate correctly and as such all 14 wires from it have now been installed. An auxiliary contact block has also now been fitted to No.5 traction motor contactor, and its 14 wires connected. The coil wires on M1, 2, 3 and 4, have also been fitted. Several parts of the remaining motor arc arc chutes have now been cleaned up and two complete arc chutes have been made from the spare and broken sections. These have now been fitted into Repulse, completing the six we need for the motor contactors. 6 January 2008

This picture shows the three replacement overhauled radiator fan contactors (left) and the main earth fault contactor (right) installed in the cubicle. Not visible in the picture is a piece of copper bar that has been made and fitted to replace the missing one from between the nos 2 and 3 radiator fan contactors. 6 January 2008.

Overhauled main start contactors (left) fitted in the cubicle with new wiring runs, and the rear of the field divert relay board (right). The wiring runs are only loosely tied in places as further cables need to be added. 6 January 2008.
