Recommendations of IEC technical committee no. 24 on electric and magnetic magnitudes and units

A MEETING of Technical Committee (TC) 24 on Electric and Magnetic Magnitudes and Units (EMMU) was held at Philadelphia, Pa., on September 10 and 11, 1954, during the Golden Jubilee of the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). It should be understood that the recommendations made by this committee, and given in the following, have been referred to the national committees of the various countries for an official vote under the 6 months´ rule. Thus they are not as yet official decisions. However, since each recommendation was approved by a large majority of the delegates present from the various countries, it seems reasonable to expect that they will be approved by the national committees.
