Can anyone provide the definition of calibration from ISO/IEC 17000? I noticed that ISO 9001, TS 16949, ISO 10012 and ISO 17025 do not provide a definition of calibration.

Thank you, Dirk

I don't have a copy of ISO/IEC 17000.....however VIM (International Vocabulary of General and Specific Terms in Metrology) is typically used for calibration. NIST Handbook 150:2001 quotes VIM in its definition.

Hope this helps.

1.5.8 Calibration: Set of operations that establish, under specified conditions, the relationship between
values of quantities indicated by a measuring instrument or measuring system, or values represented by
a material measure or a reference material, and the corresponding values realized by standards.
NOTE 1 The result of a calibration permits either the assignment of values of measurands to the indications or the
determination of corrections with respect to indications.
NOTE 2 A calibration may also determine other metrological properties such as the effect of influence quantities.
NOTE 3 The result of a calibration may be recorded in a document, sometimes called a calibration certificate or
a calibration report.
[VIM: 1993, 6.111
