[time-nuts] Leviton VTP24 Is this Time Accurate enough? - Line Frequency and TXOs

2021-08-29 Thread Thomas D. Erb
In Southern California Edison's region I know that 60Hz used as a time 
reference has been unstable in possibly the last 10+ years.  I have found that 
depending on whether in the summer clocks which use this reference tend to run 
slower, and in the winter they run faster.

Have you noticed that in some way it between running fast or slow the gain/loss 
combination averages out over the course of the year?

I just check our test board on once a year - haven't been paying attention to 
local variations.

Have to get my old analog master power station Warren Type "B" working - to get 
a better idea.

I inquired with Leviton as to the accuracy of the VTP24 24 Hour Programmable
Timer with DST.

Here is the reply I received:

Hello,

Thank you for contacting Leviton technical support. According to the code it
meets, it is required to have time keeping accuracy within 5 minutes every
year.

It also uses a crystal to keep time, as it must maintain the time even
during power outages.

Regards,
