In measurement technology and metrology, calibration is the comparison of measurement values delivered by a device under
test with those of a calibration standard of known accuracy. Such a standard could be another measurement device of known
accuracy, a device generating the quantity to be measured such as a voltage, a sound tone, or a physical artifact, such as a meter ruler.
The South African National Accreditation System is recognised by the South African Government as the National Accreditation

and Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) test facilities are competent to carry out specific tasks. SANAS certificates are a formal
recognition that an organisation is competent to perform specific tasks and able to issue such certificates.
