2 Composition of special buffer solutions
3 Observed potential differences (in millivolts) for a
    perfect electrode responding to hydrogen ions
    transferred between Na+ free solutions
4 Observed potential differences (in millivolts) for a
    perfect glass electrode transferred between
    solutions of various Na+ concentrations at
    approximately constant pH

Specifies for each type of electrode for general laboratory use, performance requirements, methods of test, maximum permitted errors, other essential characteristics and information to be supplied by the manufacturer.

This British Standard specifies the performance requirements and other essential characteristics of glass electrodes responsive to hydrogen ions, reference electrodes and glass combination electrodes for general laboratory use.
