Metrological Standard


Activities for Standards Dissemination :
Gauge blocks and line standards

Until 1993, when the previous metrology low had been enforced, we had been supplied the length standards by round robin test of gauge blocks (1/ 2 years) and calibration service of line standards ( 2 - 3/ 1 year). Since 1993, we have been supported mainly in technical problems to establish new traceability system based on the new metrology low and including laboratory accreditation system.
