JIS Z 8402-6:1999 (R2014)

The purpose of this part of JIS Z 8402 is to give some indications of the way in which accuracy data can be used in various practical situations by: a) giving a standard method of calculating the repeatability limit, the reproducibility limit and other limit to be used in examining the test results obtained by a standard measurement method; b) providing a way of checking the acceptability of test results obtained under repeatability or reproducibility conditions; c) describing how to assess the stability of results within a laboratory over a period of time, and thus providing a method of 'quality control' of the operations within that laboratory; d) describing how to assess whether a given laboratory is able to use a given standard measurement method in a satisfactory way; e) describing how to compare alternative measurement methods.
