Issue
The current wording does not allow to deduce any mapping to TimeStamp. It does not tell there is a fractional second field and a time quality field. In addition, it redefines the time scale (without mentioning leap seconds), but such a definition should exist at only one place in the whole standard suite (in 7-2). 8-1 should only define encodings, not the basic type.
Uppercase-lowercase is wrong
Proposal
Remove the definition and refer to the 7-2 type.
n) UTC Time should be changed to
n) UTC TIME - mapped to a 64-bit value âssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssffffffffffffffffffffffffqqqqqqqqâB

| Triage There is no issue with the text in F2.3. The text defines an extension to IEC 9506. Clause 8.1.3.7 defines the specific usage. No change is required. | 02 May 13 |
