About the maker:
The General Electric Company, often shortened to GEC, was formed in 1886 in Britain and were a powerhouse in the development, design and manufacture of electrical components including defence electronics, communications, engineering and most notably lighting for various sectors. GEC produced street lighting, flameproof (FLP) rated factory lighting, airfield lighting and even shop window display lamps branded as GecoRay. They were transformed by the outbreak of WWI and went on to produce electrical equipment used right through the war.
