Abstract
Swedish standard time is regulated by law to follow UTC as maintained by the BIPM. The atomic clocks that are used to implement UTC(SP), the realization of UTC in Sweden, are located at four different sites and are reported to TAI using data from TWSTFT and GNSS links. The activities in the Time and Frequency laboratory at SP are presently undergoing an expansion with the construction of a new additional secure site and the implementation of a distributed time scale.
