MEASURAND : Length of gauge blocks
TRAVELLING STANDARDS : 10 steel gauge blocks
|
For each nominal value, the reference value, xR, is obtained as the arithmetic mean of the participant results taking into acount the estimated drift of the travelling gauge block (see page 50 of the Final Report). The standard uncertainty, uR, of the reference value is computed according to equation A7 given on page 51 of the Final Report. |
.gif)
| The degree of equivalence of each laboratory i with respect to the reference value is given by a pair of terms: Di = xi - xR, and Ui, its expanded uncertainty given by equation A11 of the Final Report. |
| The pair-wise degrees of equivalence are not calculated. |
Key comparison EUROMET.L-K1 is parallel to key comparison CCL-K1.
Numerical linking of these comparisons is not recommended due to artefact dependent offsets. Instead, laboratories participating competently in both key comparisons establish the link and assure equivalence.
