A tolerance is a design feature that defines limits within which a quality characteristic is supposed to be on individual parts; it represents the maximum allowable deviation from a specified value.
The systematic description of known uncertainties relevant to specific measurements or types of measurements, categorized by type of measurement, range of measurement, and/or other applicable measurement criteria.
In a calibration procedure, the test uncertainty ratio (TUR) is the ratio of the accuracy tolerance of the unit under calibration to the uncertainty of the calibration standard used.
One or more numerical results of a calibration process, with the associated measurement uncertainty, as recorded on a calibration report or certificate.
