'''13 equal divisions of the tritave''' ('''13edt''') is the [[nonoctave]] [[tuning system]] derived by dividing the [[tritave]] (3/1) into 13 equal steps of 146.3 [[cent]]s each, or the thirteenth root of 3. It is best known as the equal-tempered version of the [[Bohlen–Pierce]] scale, and therefore has received by far the most attention among equal divisions of the tritave.

13edt can be described as approximately 8.202[[edo]]. This implies that each step of 13edt can be approximated by 5 steps of [[41edo]].

In the [[no-2]] [[3/1-equave-7-limit]], [[13edt]] maintains the smallest relative error of any EDT until [[258edt]] and [[271edt]], and the smallest absolute error until [[56edt]].
In the [[no-2]] [[3/1]]-[[equave]]-[[7-limit]], [[13edt]] maintains the smallest relative error of any EDT until [[258edt]] and [[271edt]], and the smallest absolute error until [[56edt]].
