Kalibreerimistingimusi, also known as calibration uncertainty, refers to the degree of confidence in the accuracy of a measurement system's calibration. It is a critical aspect of metrology, the science of measurement, and is used to quantify the potential error in measurements due to the calibration process itself. Calibration uncertainty is typically expressed as a range of values within which the true value of a measurement is expected to lie, with a certain level of confidence.

The calibration uncertainty is influenced by several factors, including the precision and accuracy of the reference standards used, the stability of the measurement system, and the environmental conditions during calibration. It is calculated using statistical methods and takes into account various sources of error, such as random and systematic errors.

In practical terms, calibration uncertainty helps ensure that measurements are reliable and traceable to internationally recognized standards. It is essential for industries where precision is paramount, such as manufacturing, aerospace, and healthcare. By understanding and managing calibration uncertainty, organizations can improve the quality of their products and processes, enhance safety, and comply with regulatory requirements.

Calibration uncertainty is often reported alongside calibration certificates, which document the results of a calibration and provide information about the measurement system's performance. It is a key component of quality assurance and control, helping to maintain the integrity of measurement data and support decision-making processes.
