Measurement Standards and Support Equipment Performance Requirements 

 
2.1

 

The UUC accuracy requirements are based upon the published UUC performance 
specifications. 

 
2.2

 

The test uncertainty ratio applied in this Calibration Procedure is 4:1 unless otherwise 
stated. 

 
2.3

 

The Minimum-Use-Specifications are the minimum test equipment specifications 
required to meet all the UUC accuracy requirements and the test uncertainty ratio 
applied.
