Calibration Interval 1

The document outlines calibration frequency requirements for various instruments and gauges. It includes 5 tables that specify the measurement tool, allowed tolerance, calibration frequency, and reference standard for tools like dial indicators, micrometers, vernier calipers and others. Calibration is generally required every 4 months or 1 year, depending on the instrument, to ensure accuracy is maintained.
