Switchboard Charging No 1
WORKING INSTRUCTIONS
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.
The unclear part reads "Carbon Pile Regulator".

It's also "Niphan" with a 'a' (but you have to know that in advance (grin)).

Niphan connectors are still in production, but the modern ones are either plastic or stainless steel, I think. (Also the company is only interested in large commercial orders and Defence contracts, and completely uninterested in sales to the general public.)

Chris.
