About Calibration Standards and Reference Sources

Calibration standards and reference sources provide standard values for calibrating instruments and comparing materials and components. Gage blocks, balls, and rings provide dimensional standards for calibration. For electronic components, there are highly accurate standard values for capacitance, inductance, resistance, voltage, and current. Inspection and non-destructive testing (NDT) also use calibration standards and reference sources.
