1.1 This standard applies to the following apparatus:
a) Supply apparatus with stabilization, which is designed to supply calibrated values of voltage and/or current in connection with electrical measurement; and
b) Accessories used with this apparatus.
Note — A supply apparatus designed to supply calibrated values is characterized by having a specified accuracy under reference conditions, which is of the order of its stabilization. To apparatus falling within this scope the same performance concept is applied as to electronic measuring equipment in general.
The opposite case is a supply apparatus having an accuracy under reference conditions which is appreciably lower than its stabilization performance. It is not advisable to specify such apparatus in accordance with this standard.
1.2 Safety requirements are not dealt with in this standard.
