Accuracy (trueness and precision) of measurement methods and results — Part 6: Use in practice of accuracy values

Scope

The purpose is to give some indications of the way in which accuracy data can be used in various practical situations by: giving a standard method of calculating the repeatability limit, the reproducibility limit and other limits, providing a way of checking the acceptability of test results obtained under repeatability or reproducibility conditions, describing how to assess the stability of results within a laboratory over a period of time, describing how to assess whether a given laboratory is able to use a given standard measurement method in a satisfactory way, describing how to compare alternative measurement methods.
