In some measurement error (ME) models, the true variables may be not perfectly related. In this case, the equation error should be considered into the models. In this work, we propose a new replicated structural ME model with equation error. Maximum likelihood estimates are computed via an EM type algorithm method. A closed expression is presented for the asymptotic covariance matrix of those estimators based on the Fisher information matrix. The results of simulation studies and a real data set analysis confirm the effect of the estimation method and illustrate the importance of the equation error.
