The Effect of Shunted Resistance, or Plug Leakage, on the Sparking Performance of an Electrical Ignition System, G. E. Bairsto. Jl. Instn. Elec. Engrs.. vol. 58, no. 292. June 1920, pp. 507522, 22 figs. Tests made at Royal Aircraft Establishment, Farnborongh, England, during 1917 to 1918, to determine effect of shunted resistance on spark voltage of most of leading types of electrical ignition systems in use. It was found that the quicker the rate of rise of secondary potential the less is fall of voltage with lenknge. Tests. Ignition from the Engineman's Viewpoint. George E. A. Hallett. Jl. Soc.
