UKAS Meter Calibration v Check Box ... Meter calibration should be carried out periodically by a UKAS accredited calibration laboratory so that the accuracy of the meter under test can be compared with a standard of known accuracy, under repeatable controlled conditions. Proper meter calibration, carried out say, every 12 months, with a UKAS calibration certificate detailing the full measured results will give you confidence that the meter is producing consistent valid results across its full operating range. Comparison with a check box will not deliver the same level of confidence. Check boxes do however have their place. They are very useful for carrying out quick in-service checking of the major functions of a meter between calibrations. Especially useful when you are on-site, if the meter has been dropped or subjected to overload. Proper UKAS meter calibration is however the only way you can be absolutely sure that the measurements made with the meter are accurate and can be relied upon. Would you buy a second hand car without an MOT? Probably not. The risks and dangers are obvious. Similarly, the risks and dangers of relying on electrical measurements made using an un-calibrated meter should be equally obvious. To sum up then, check boxes have their place, but their use should not be considered an acceptable alternative to a proper calibration by a UKAS accredited calibration laboratory.
