Abstract :
The National Metrology Laboratory (NML) of South Africa carried out two independent capacitance intercomparisons with the Nederlands Meetinstituut (NMi) of the Netherlands and the National Physical Laboratory (NPL) of India during the latter part of 1997. The paper gives the results of the intercomparison and the capacitance measurement systems prevalent in the laboratories involved.
