"I would think they try to hold it over 1 day, so that mains driven clocks don't run slow or fast.? That being said, I wonder how many
clocks are still being built using a synchronous motor drive? Given that all the clocks on appliances in my kitchen have drifted apart, I'll bet they use their internal microcontroller crystal as a reference." Actually I think all of my kitchen appliances use line frequency for time reference - it's so easy to count. Thomas D.
