Abstract
An average of 30 B,V secondary standards per field have been establish ed for 76 variable stars. These are mostly cataclysmic variables of va rious subclasses but also include a variety of other kinds of variable stars. The standards are within a few arcminutes of the variable and are therefore well suited for CCD photometry. The standards have brigh tnesses of V similar to 12-17 and have a typical accuracy per standard of +/-0.01 mag.
