3 Measuring procedures
3.1 Preparation of vehicles and trailers
3.1.1 During all voltage measurements, equivalent resistors or calibrated filament lamps shall be used for the lamps to be measured to substitute for all those filament lamps installed. The method chosen shall be recorded in the test report. In case of dispute, the method using resistors shall be decisive.
The resistance of the equivalent resistor or the calibrated filament lamps must meet those specified in Table 1. If the type of the filament lamps is not included in Table 1, then its equivalent resistance shall be determined according to the average power consumption at its test voltage.
