Applies to passive, two-wire, externally powered pulse output devices for use in electricity meters as specified by the relevant standards of technical committee 13 as well as future standards for static VA-hour meters.

This part of IEC 62053 is applicable to passive, two-wire, externally powered pulse output devices to be used in electricity meters as defined by the relevant standards of technical committee 13 (see normative references) as well as future standards for static VA-hour meters.

Such pulse output devices are used to transmit pulses, representing a finite energy quantity, to a receiver (e.g. a tariff device).
