The cutoff uncertainty (0.30 %) was applied to the measurements of LNE-INM/Cnam, NMIA, NIM, NPL and PTB in the calculation of xR.
Measurements from INTI and the BIPM were excluded from the calculation of xR.
Acronyms of participants in CCPR-K4 (1997 - 1998) were updated in June 2015.
Results are presented under A4 printable format in Summary Results (PDF file).

The key comparison reference value, xR, is calculated as the weighted average of the invidual results xi, weighted by the inverse square of the individual standard uncertainties, ui, with the application of a minimum cutoff of 0.30%. |
| The degree of equivalence of each laboratory with respect to the reference value is given by a pair of terms: Di = (xi - xR) / xR and Ui, its expanded uncertainty (k = 2), both expressed in relative units. Ui = 2ui. |
| When required, the degree of equivalence between two laboratories is given by a pair of terms: Dij = (xi - xj) / xR and Uij, its expanded uncertainty (k = 2), both expressed in relative units. Uij = 2(ui2 + uj2)1/2. |

Beside the pilot laboratory, PTB, INRIM and LNE-INM/Cnam acted as linking laboratories for EURAMET.PR-K4. The luminous flux maintained at the linking laboratories was used to evaluate the EURAMET reference value as a weighted luminous flux average. By definition, the CCPR-K4 key comparison reference value and the EURAMET.PR-K4 reference value have identical values (see Section 4.2 of the EURAMET.PR-K4 Final Report, especially Table 4 and Figure 4), but the expanded uncertainty associated with the EURAMET reference value is about triply the expanded uncertainty associated with the CCPR-K4 key comparison reference value. |
| The realized or preserved luminous flux values of the EURAMET participants were compared with the EURAMET reference value in a star-type comparison at the pilot with batches of three to six lamps of various types. The degrees of equivalence with respect to the EURAMET reference value were evaluated and then directly transferred to the CCPR-K4 key comparison reference value. |

The individual measurements, xi, of the participating laboratories take the form of ratios which depend on the reference used at the pilot laboratory, the PTB. This is cancelled out by normalization using the key comparison reference value, xR. This procedure leads to normalized individual measurements: xi / xR.
The participants' measurements are given in Annex B of the EURAMET.PR-K4 Final Report.
The ratio of the measurement results of the laboratories participating in SIM.PR-K4 to the measurement results obtained at the pilot laboratory, the CENAM, are given in table 15 of the SIM.PR-K4 Final Report.
The measurement results of the laboratories participating in COOMET.PR-K4.1 are given in table 7 of the COOMET.PR-K4.1 Final Report.
The measurement results of the participants in APMP.PR-K4 are given in Section 6 of the APMP.PR-K4 Final Report.
