1.3.1 Energy input rate (10.2),
1.3.2 Holding capacity (10.3),
1.3.3 Holding temperature calibration (10.3),
1.3.4 Preheat energy rate, (10.4),
1.3.5 Idle energy rate (10.5), and
1.3.6 Holding energy rate (10.6).
1.4 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as the standard. The values given in parentheses are for information only.
