Abstract
A new type of moving-coil watt balance is under construction at the Swiss F ederal Office of Metrology (OFMET). The aim of the experiment is the monito ring of the kilogram by means of the electrical quantum standards with a re lative uncertainty of less than or equal to 10(-8). The paper presents the main features of the proposed instrument.
