Metrological traceability is the property of a measurement result by which the result can be related to a stated reference, usually a national realization of an SI unit, through a documented and unbroken chain of calibrations, each of which contributes to the measurement uncertainty. A calibration certificate for a test instrument names the reference standards used so that the chain can be followed.
