The switchboard No 1 is connected to the
wireless set no 11 by means of the two wire
"plug-socket" provided. The leads from the
switchboard charging terminals should be
connected to the battery pole leg , ????? taking
care that the polarity is correct. The batteries
should be connected to the switchboard by the
leads and "Niphon" plugs supplied.

I'm unsure of the italics and the question marks.
I do have a couple of WW2 Niphan plugs , the British ones - they do plug into my ww2 British batteries . I should do a drawing of the plugs . I believe the company is still making plugs NIPHAN in the uk .

BTW the Aust. WW2 era niphan plugs are different, they will not plug into the British sockets . My 1943 dated British battery box drawings are on this forum somewhere .

I found those WW2 wireless set acid batteries out in hughes yard Coburg .

This guy has a niphan plug , and that test meter as well .
