- Abstract:
- Abstract. In this work are analysed capabilities and position of the Estonian calibration laboratories. During last 10 years had Estonia changed completely and this involve also the actievity on metrology area. Basic change was this, that on the socialist time was verification mandatory for almost all measuring instruments, now shall it be replaced greatly by voluntary calibration. Huge problem for Estonian calibration laboratories was the reference standards traceability. On the previous time it came from the Soviet Union metrological institutes. Now the main laboratory reference standards are mostly traceable to the western countries reference standards.
In this work are analysed the traceability assurance and the influence of changes to the laboratories and to the metrological infrastructure. In a summary is given conclusion of actions which can be used for restructuration of metrological infrastructure of the post socialist counties. - Keywords:
