While contributions on any subject relevant to the history of electricity and electrical engineering will be welcomed, in view of the historical significance of the Thames estuary and its immediate environs in the development of electrical engineering papers relating to the various industries and establishments that grew up along the banks of the river from submarine telegraph cables of the 1850s to semiconductors and computers would be of especial relevance.
