I downloaded the Scope of Accreditation document for the above lab.
Am I interpreting things incorrectly, or do the uncertainties for DC
voltage source (in particular) look large?

One very odd thing that I noticed when it was open was the remnants of a
wire that had been tack soldered to what looks like a voltage regulator.
Looks like someone either wanted a temporary test point for the
unregulated 5v supply while they troubleshot a problem, or used the
unregulated supply to power some modification that has since been
removed. Kinda sloppy the way they left it.
Best regards,

Thanks, Charles. That other companies uncertainties really do suck as badly
as I thought they did.
