Sumario:This report provides the background for and summarizes the main results of the 17th session of the Consultative Committee on Electricity (CCE) of the International Committee of Weights and Measures held in September 1986. Included are decisions made by the CCE which promise to have a profound effect on the standardization of national representations of the volt and ohm and thus on the international compatibility of electrical measurements. In particular, on January 1, 1990, worldwide changes in the basis for such representations are planned which will lead to an increase in the U.S. legal unit of voltage of about 9 parts-per-million (ppm) and in the U.S. legal unit of resistance of about 1.5 ppm.
