Identification of 50s generator

Could anyone help me identify this generator it was part of a lot at a recent collective sale the reason I think it is ex RAF is the arrowhead marking and on the one end are lines of wrighting hand painted one of them reads F T 748 hrs which I take to mean flight time. The test plate is dated 1956 Hopefully the attached photo will appear fingers crossed..Jon[ATTACH=CONFIG]221813[/ATTACH]

The P3 is also used on the Sea Prince to power all the students’ radio equipment.
I’ve seen these on Bristol Hercules engines too.
