Kilroy's Danger Signal wiring
As seen in the Annual Report of the Torpedo School, 1913[1]

Kilroy's Danger Signal was an automated system to detect and signal when the blast from one turret's guns might endanger the guns of another turret based on their present training and elevation angles.

It was one of several contributions of Willie Dickson Kilroy, an inventor and officer in the Royal Navy Volunteer Reserve.
