    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Applies only to newly manufactured static var-hour meters of accuracy classes 2 and 3 for the measurement of alternating current electrical reactive energy of a frequency in the range 45 Hz to 65 Hz and, like EN 60687 and IEC 61036, it includes type tests only.
