I’m hoping someone can tell me what aircraft types (but most specifically would have been out here in New Zealand in the 1940s-early 1950s) used the following two pieces of electrical equipment that I’ve acquired some amongst a package of materials from a chap who’s father purchased the stuff in the early post-war period (ie the “great” disposals of the wartime RNZAF fleets the last of which took place around 1957).
The first is AM relay type 5c/1712.
The second is a 24Volt DC 400 RPM 6.25Amp Dunmore 635072B electric motor/generator (American origin). These don’t appear to be engine accessory case mounted but have fittings to clamp to presumably tubular frames.
Thanks for any help.

By other means it turns out to be revealed that the relays are used (amongst other perhaps) in the Mosquito where they relate to the starter motor and feathering pump.
