Defines a method for measuring the water rejection performance of louvres subjected to simulated rain and wind pressures, both with and without air flow through the louvre under test. For the purpose of tests in this standard, a 1000 mm x 1000 mm section of weather louvre or the nearest possible blade increment is considered.
