Thanks...and does the calibrtion of the calibration equipment need to be done independantly?If you have the calibration equipment you can calibrate it yourselves, but remember the calibration equipment will also need calabrating on a regular basis.
I’d say not as long as the calibration equipment your using to test the calibration equipment is also calibrated by whoever has equipment to calibrate that is also calibrated.Thanks...and does the calibrtion of the calibration equipment need to be done independantly?
The calibration process/results need to traceable to national standards somehow, so if it was done by an 'independent' company (that's fine) you would expect them to be accredited by UKAS (assuming UK) for calibrating that particular type of equipment, e.g:Thanks...and does the calibrtion of the calibration equipment need to be done independantly?
Can you actually buy fully calibrated calibration equipment ? Wouldn't it have to be calibrated by someone first before you calibrate it to test your equipment ?I’d say not as long as the calibration equipment your using to test the calibration equipment is also calibrated by whoever has equipment to calibrate that is also calibrated.
It should come from the manufacturers with a full calibration certificate (except sometimes you have to ask for it and/or there is an extra charge!), and then it needs to be re-calibrated periodically (period usually specified by the manufacturer of the calibrator/ may depend on useage), say annually.Can you actually buy fully calibrated calibration equipment ?

Here's just the thing (if you can find the missing parts, fix it, and pay to have it calibrated!)
Fluke 760A Meter Calibrator for Voltage Current & Resistance Volts Amps & Ohms | eBay
Fluke 760A Meter Calibrator for Voltage Current & Resistance Volts Amps & Ohms Liquidation Stock In secondhand condition and not in working order. It powers on but the fault is probably due to a missing connector board as shown in one of the photographs Please click on the photos to see...www.ebay.co.uk
Agreed (was trying to keep it simple!) - MFT a whole new can of wormsAnd then buy the test gear to calibrate the RCD testing part of the MFT.
