BIPM.EM-K10 and EUROMET.EM.BIPM-K10.a
MEASURAND DC voltage, Josephson standard
NOMINAL VALUE 1.018 V
The key comparison reference value is the BIPM value. Its standard uncertainty is evaluated to be 0.1 nV and is included in the ui values.
The degree of equivalence between two laboratories i and j can be estimated as Dij = Di - Dj = (xi - xj) and its expanded uncertainty (k = 2), Uij, both expressed in nV, where Uij = 2[ui2 + uj2 - 2cov(i, j)]1/2. cov(i, j) << (0.1 nV)2 is the estimated covariance that takes into account the correlation introduced by the BIPM measurements. This term is negligible.
Linking EUROMET.EM.BIPM-K10.a to BIPM.EM-K10
The results issued from EUROMET.EM.BIPM-K10.a were linked to BIPM.EM-K10 via the BIPM who participated in both comparisons. Detailed information on the linking is given on page 6 of the EUROMET.EM.BIPM-K10.a Final Report.

NOMINAL VALUE 10 V
BIPM.EM-K10
The key comparison reference value is the BIPM value. Its standard uncertainty is evaluated to be 0.04 nV and is included in the ui values.
The degree of equivalence of laboratory i with respect to the key comparison reference value is given by a pair of terms:
Di = xi and its expanded uncertainty (k = 2), Ui = 2 ui, both expressed in nV.
When required, the degree of equivalence between two laboratories i and j can be estimated as Dij = Di - Dj = (xi - xj) and its expanded uncertainty (k = 2), Uij, both expressed in nV, where Uij = 2[ui2 + uj2 - 2cov(i, j)]1/2. cov(i, j) << (0.1 nV)2 is the estimated covariance that takes into account the correlation introduced by the BIPM measurements. This term is negligible.
