I often say that when you can measure what you are speaking
about, and express it in numbers, you know something about
it …
… but when you cannot measure it, when you cannot express
it in numbers, your knowledge is of a meagre and
unsatisfactory kind.

Far from being a dull area of science, high-precision
measurements are an increasingly exciting area in which to
work, for they push theory and experiment to the very limits of
which they are capable…
If we recall that the rich oil deposits under the North Sea
remained unknown until the advent of the very precise
geophysical measurements, or that the spin of the electron
was inferred from precise spectroscopic measurements, we
see more clearly the class of discoveries which can come from
precise measurement.

What is Metrology?
Metrology is the science of measurement.
Laboratory of Legal Metrology, CTU in Prague
Athens 2008
What is Metrology?
Metrology covers three main activities:
1.
The definition of internationally accepted units of measurement,
e.g. the metre.
2.
The realization of units of measurement by scientific methods,
e.g. the realization of a metre through the use of lasers.
3.
The establishment of traceability chains by determining and
documenting the value and accuracy of a measurement and
disseminating that knowledge, e.g. the documented relationship
between the micrometer screw in a precision engineering
workshop and a primary laboratory for optical length metrology.

What is Metrology?
Metrology is considered in three categories with different
levels of complexity and accuracy:
1.
Scientific metrology deals with the organisation and
development of measurement standards and with their
maintenance (highest level).
2.
Industrial metrology has to ensure the adequate functioning of
measurement instruments used in industry as well as in
production and testing processes.
3.
Legal metrology is concerned with measurements where these
influence the transparency of economic transactions, health and
safety.


Systematic measurement with known degrees of uncertainty is
one of the foundations of industrial quality control and,
generally speaking, in most modern industries the costs
bound up in taking measurements constitute 10 -15% of
production costs.

Current balance

IC1 enters C1 at the bottom and leaves it at the top,
IC2 enters C2 at the top and leaves it at the bottom. 
 Electromagnetic forces on the suspended coil,
produced by these two currents, are of the same sense.

Current balance operation
• The mass of the suspended coil plus the
vertical electromagnetic force exerted on it
are counterbalanced by means of a mass m
on the left scale pan.
• After reversing the current in the suspended
coil, the change m of this mass, necessary
to offset the change F of the acting
electromagnetic force, is determined.

Current balance operation
A separate moving experiment makes it
possible to avoid the troublesome calculation
of f from the dimensions of the coils:
Coil C3, which is threaded by the magnetic
flux produced by the current I flowing in C1
and C2, is moved with a constant velocity v
in the vertical direction, a voltage u(t) being
induced in it:
Current balance operation
If a voltage drop U = R I is produced by
the current I on a known resistance R
and if a velocity v is choosen for which
u t   U
in the moment of passage of the scale
beam through its equilibrium position,

In case that quantum standards of
voltage and resistance are used to
measure the current I flowing in the coils
in course of the weighing experiment, a
current balance with a known value of f
can be used to produce known values of
electromagnetic force and to monitor
variations of masses which are used to
counterbalance it.
Voltage balance
is an apparatus based on counterbalancing
the attractive force between electrodes of a
capacitor.
