  • Daylight Saving Time (DST)
    Daylight Saving Time (DST) Updated September 30, 2020 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov R45208 Daylight Saving Time (DST) Summary Daylight Saving Time (DST) is a period of the year between spring and fall when clocks in most parts of the United States are set one hour ahead of standard time. DST begins on the second Sunday in March and ends on the first Sunday in November. The beginning and ending dates are set in statute. Congressional interest in the potential benefits and costs of DST has resulted in changes to DST observance since it was first adopted in the United States in 1918. The United States established standard time zones and DST through the Calder Act, also known as the Standard Time Act of 1918. The issue of consistency in time observance was further clarified by the Uniform Time Act of 1966. These laws as amended allow a state to exempt itself—or parts of the state that lie within a different time zone—from DST observance. These laws as amended also authorize the Department of Transportation (DOT) to regulate standard time zone boundaries and DST. The time period for DST was changed most recently in the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (EPACT 2005; P.L. 109-58). Congress has required several agencies to study the effects of changes in DST observance. In 1974, DOT reported that the potential benefits to energy conservation, traffic safety, and reductions in violent crime were minimal. In 2008, the Department of Energy assessed the effects to national energy consumption of extending DST as changed in EPACT 2005 and found a reduction in total primary energy consumption of 0.02%.

  • Application Note AN2015-03
    Application Note AN2015-03 Solving UTC and Local Time Time-Stamp Challenges Using ACSELERATOR TEAM® SEL-5045 Software Joshua Hughes INTRODUCTION As intelligent electronic devices (IEDs) that allow historical data recording and trending (such as protective relays and revenue meters) are integrated into power systems, it becomes apparent that correlating time between devices at multiple locations can be a complex issue. It is good practice to connect high-accuracy clocks to all IEDs to allow for event analysis. When comparing events, it is usually easy to determine if one event record is applicable or not because of time zone differences or daylight-saving time (DST) discrepancies. However, when comparing continuous trending data, such as load profile data, it becomes much more important to record accurate time zone and DST information. Without this information, the data profile might not provide enough detail to determine what local time the data were recorded in. This application note describes the challenges associated with time zones and DST, and it presents two ACSELERATOR TEAM® SEL-5045 Software configurations for solving time-stamp ambiguity issues. PROBLEM The two major challenges associated with data time stamps are time zones and DST application. Most users prefer that IEDs in the field be programmed with local time to make their jobs easier, but this causes complications with older devices that do not understand time zones or DST. Time Zones Local times were first determined by apparent solar time using devices such as sundials. Because apparent solar time fluctuates based on where the measurement is taken (roughly four minutes for every degree of longitude), time zones were created to maintain a standard time between multiple regions.

  • Atomix Atomic Clock 00562 Instructions
    Atomix Atomic Clock Model 00562 About the Atomic Clock The National Institute of Standard and Technology (NIST) in Fort Collins, Colorado broadcasts the time signal (WWVB at 60 kHz AM radio signal) with an accuracy of 1 second per every 3,000 years. The signal is able to cover a distance of up to 2,000 miles from the source. Like a typical AM radio, your atomic clock will not be able to receive the WWVB signal in places surrounded by heavy concrete or metal panels. The reception of the time signal is also greatly affected by electrical or electronic interference. To get the best performance from the atomic clock, install the clock nearer to a window facing west. Battery Installation and Set Up Remove the battery cover and insert 2 “AA” alkaline batteries according to the direction shown inside the battery compartment. Once the batteries are installed the display will show all segments of the LCD display for 3 seconds and will beep once. Then the display will show 12:00pm Jan 1, 2000 together with room temperature. The Time Zone is defaulted at PST – Pacific Standard Time. Select the correct Timer Zone 1. Press the ZONE / DST button to select PST, MST, CST or EST. 2. Once a time zone is selected, your Atomix clock will start searching for the time signal. 3. While your Atomix clock is seeking the signal, the signal strength icon will change gradually indicating the search is continuing. 4. If the signal is available, your Atomix clock will display the local time in about 3-5 minutes.

  • Parameter Codes Are Five-Digit Codes Used to Identify the Constituent Measured and the Units of Measure
    QWDATA: Section 2 – Getting Started 2 GETTING STARTED 2.1 Terminology 2.1.1 Sample An environmental sample is the portion of a media (water, sediment, tissue, etc.) collected from a site for a specific date and time for analysis. A sample in the database is uniquely identified by the key variables, analyzing agency code, station number, begin date, begin time, end date, end time and medium code. The results of the chemical analyses and physical determinations for a sample are generally stored as one sample. These key variables are sometimes adjusted to separate samples that are hydrologically linked, but cannot be stored as one sample. Examples: Quality-control samples are stored as separate samples using one of the designated QC (Quality Control) medium codes. Samples from different depths or cross-sections may use time to ‘off-set’ samples that were collected at the same site on the same date. 2.1.2 Result Values derived from chemical analyses or physical determinations of a sample are stored in the database as results. Results are uniquely identified in each sample by a parameter code that defines the property or constituent measured. 2.1.3 Parameter Code Parameter Codes are five-digit codes used to identify the constituent measured and the units of measure. Some parameter code definitions include information about the methods used to measure the constituent, but this level of information is not currently consistent in the naming system. 2.1.4 Record This is equivalent in the database to a single, uniquely identified sample. 2.1.5 Record Number A record number is an eight-digit number assigned to a sample when the sample is logged into the database.

  • The Jerusalem Teddy Park Sundial
    The Jerusalem Teddy Park Sundial The beam of light emitted from the Sun takes about 8 minutes and 20 seconds to reach the sundial. This is due to the fact that the Sun is at an average distance of about 150 million km from the Earth. The sundial is a device which is intended to display the time according to the relative position of the Sun in its apparent motion across the sky. The sundial represents the cyclical nature of the Sun's motion across the sky, as it is seen during the day and throughout the year. This sundial is the result of a unique design. The stone base of the sundial is inclined at an angle equal to the geographical latitude in which it is erected – 31 degrees, 46 minutes and 32 seconds, northern latitude. In this design, the gnomon - the pointer which casts the shadow, also known as the indicator - is parallel to the stone base of the sundial, unlike sundials in which the gnomon is perpendicular to the stone base or inclined at an angle which is equal to the latitude of its location. In addition, a special sight is available at the top of the gnomon, through which the North Star, Polaris, can be seen in proximity to the point where the Earth's rotational axis intersects the celestial sphere. The indentation at the center of the stone base of the sundial is intended to cast a circle of light on the bottom plate. Every day throughout the year at the same time (e.g.

  • The Equatorial Sundial Telling Time with the Sun
    Directions: Create a document to answer the Questions. That will be your report. Optional: Include a picture of yourself using the sundial that we can put on the Physics 90 public web page. The Equatorial Sundial Telling Time with the Sun Overview There are various kinds of sundials. The easiest kind to understand is the equatorial sundial. All sundials have to be adjusted for your latitude, longitude, and daylight savings time, but the adjustments for the equatorial sundial are the simplest, so that is what we’ll build. 1. Acknowledgements Usually acknowledgements go at the end of a document, but this document relies so much on the Sky & Telescope article, “How to Make a Sundial the Simple Way,” https://skyandtelescope.org/observing/how-to- make-a-sundial/, by Tony Flanders that the acknowledgement deserves to be at the beginning. In the United States, Sky & Telescope has long been the leading magazine for amateur astronomers, including some pretty serious ones. Consider subscribing for a year if you want to keep up with new discoveries in astronomy. It is not expensive. 2. Types of Sundials The most common kind of sundial is often found in gardens. In the most common kind, the face of the “clock” is level or horizontal, and so this kind is called a “horizontal” sundial. The reason we are not making the most common kind is that a level surface receives the shadow of the Sun in a distorted way, and the amount of the distortion depends on latitude. QUESTION 1. There is also a kind called a “vertical” sundial, that can be mounted on a wall.

    Everyday Mysteries: Why we have daylight saving time By Department of Energy, Department of Transportation and the U.S. Navy; adapted by Newsela staff on 03.10.17 Word Count 672 Technician Oleg Ryabtsev performs maintenance work on a clock in Minsk, Belarus, March 29, 2008\. Clocks in Belarus will move one hour ahead at midnight March 11, 2017, ushering in seven months of daylight saving time. AP Photo/Sergei Grits Question: Why do we have daylight saving time? Answer: The most likely answer you will hear is that we change the clocks to help farmers have more time to work their fields. Today, the reason is mostly to save on energy, electricity and money. Does it save any? We will explain that soon, but first, comes an explanation of what it is. How Does It Work? By law, clocks in most areas of the United States are moved ahead one hour in the spring for the summer months, known as daylight time. Clocks are turned back an hour for the winter months. Wintertime is known as standard, or regular, time. This article is available at 5 reading levels at https://newsela.com. 1 The dates for the beginning and end of daylight time have changed as the government passed new laws. Since 2007, daylight time begins in the United States on the second Sunday in March and ends on the first Sunday in November. On that day in March, clocks are set ahead one hour at 2 a.m. standard time. It becomes 3 a.m. daylight time. On the first Sunday in November, clocks are set back one hour at 2 a.m.
