bear evidence of current calibration. The equipment must meet or exceed the minimum use
specifications listed in table 2. The accuracies listed in table 2 provide a four-to-one ratio
between the standard and TI. Where the four-to-one ratio cannot be met, the actual
accuracy of the equipment selected is shown in parentheses.
5. Accessories Required. The accessories required for this calibration are common
usage accessories issued as indicated in paragraph 4 above, and are not listed in this
calibration procedure. The following peculiar accessory is also required for this calibration:
