The article discusses the method used in the Central Military Calibration Laboratory to calibrate Fluke 5790 AC/DC transfer standard with reference transfer standard Fluke 792A. It presents the measurement equation and the uncertainty budget. The contribution of uncertainty components in the measurement uncertainty has been presented. The metrological traceability has been evaluated by comparing calibration results with the results in the last Fluke certificate of calibration. Keywords: AC/DC converters, AC/DC difference, thermal voltage converters (TVCs), AC voltage measurement.

The execution order of the processes of the management system (MS) of the testing laboratory (TL), certified according to the requirements of the standard GOST ISO / IEC 17025-2019, is discussed. It was established that the process “8.9 Management Review” is the main process in managing activities in a testing laboratory. The interaction of this process with other MS TL processes is considered, in particular: “6.2 Personnel”, “6.4 Equipment”, “6.5 Metrological traceability”, “7.2 Selection, verification and validation of methods”, “7.6 Evaluation of measurement uncertainty”, “7.7 Ensuring the validity of results”, “7.10 Management of inappropriate work”, “8.5 Actions related to risks and opportunities”, “8.6 Improvement”, “8.7 Corrective actions”, “ 8.8. Internal Audits”, etc.

International agreements in the field of metrology and accreditation of calibration laboratories are the basis for establishing global metrological traceability. Important elements of metrological traceability are calibration of measurement standards and measuring instruments, assessment of measurement uncertainty. The International Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation has a specific policy regarding on traceability of measurement results and estimation of measurement uncertainty in calibration. The partial concept diagram around metrological traceability in accordance with the International Vocabulary of Metrology is proposed. This diagram contains a total of nine metrological concepts, which have most of the associative relations. There are associative relations between the concept of metrological traceability chain and concepts of metrological traceability, measurement standard, calibration and calibration hierarchy, and through the concept of measurement standard with the concept of measurement uncertainty. Systems thinking to the analysis of state of proposed terminological system around metrological traceability was applied. For construction of generalized metrological traceability chain, all the established properties of the system elements around the terminology system of metrological traceability were taken into account. Generalized metrological traceability chain for different levels of the calibration hierarchy was proposed. The proposed chain can be used to develop appropriate chains for specific areas of measurement. To achieve this, it is necessary to determine the specific measured value, the required measurement uncertainty for different levels of the calibration hierarchy and select the necessary measurement standards. Such schemes should be used in national metrology institutes and calibration laboratories.

Abstract This technical report reviews measurements of mass and volume, including a review of the SI for mass, length, and amount of substance; principles of mass measurement; calibration of masses and glassware; gravimetry; volumetry; and titrimetry. Measurement uncertainty, metrological traceability and aspects of quality assurance are also treated.
