Each one of the products/ equipment requires a wide variety of tests and hence a need of specialized testing facility. The field of Electrical Testing covers tests of an essentially electrical nature performed on instruments, equipment, appliances, components and materials. The Specific Criteria for Electrical Testing Laboratories (NABL 104) has been brought cout which deals with the technical issues and serve the purpose of giving all the necessary action and guidelines for the preparation of application for NABL Accreditation by the laboratories and conducting assessment by the Technical Assessors. ‘As per the requirements of clause 5.4.6 of ISO/ IEC 17025: 2005, the testing laboratories are required to estimate the Uncertainty of Measurement. When estimating the Uncertainty of Measurement, all uncertainty components which are of importance in the given situation shall be taken into account, which shall include but not be limiting to: a reference standards and reference materials with reported uncertainty in the calibration certificate(s) method employed equipment used with reported uncertainty in the calibration certificate(s) environmental conditions eaoc properties and condition of the item being tested National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratories Dee.

The degree of rigor needed in an estimation of Uncertainty of Measurement depends on the requirements of test method, requirements of client and the existence of narrow limits on which decisions on conformance to a specification are based. All laboratories will calculate the uncertainty of measurement at 95% confidence level. National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratories Dee.

SCOPE OF DOCUMENT This document is supplementary to “Specific Criteria for Electrical Testing Laboratories” (NABL 104). As per the requirements of clause 5.4.6 of ISO/ IEC 17025: 2005, the testing laboratories are required to estimate the Uncertainty of Measurement. This document guides the laboratory to estimate the Uncertainty of Measurement for Electrical Testing, A few examples of Uncertainty of Measurement of in the field of Electrical Testing have been illustrated in this document.
