Table 2: Number of terms in the series MPP and planetary perturbations in ELP at different level of truncation $\epsilon $.
(a): $\epsilon = 0$; the series are complete.
(b): $\epsilon =10^{-5}$'' for the coefficients in longitude and latitude, 1 cm in distance for periodic terms; $\epsilon $ decreases from 10-5'' to 10-7'' for Poisson terms depending on the time power.
(c): $\epsilon =10^{-5}$'' for the coefficients in longitude and latitude, 2 cm in distance.
$K_{\rm Max}$ is the maximum time power of Poisson series. The time unit is the century.
