Scope

This standard gives specific technical criteria to be used within the frame of the general criteria given in EN 45001 and EN 45002 for the assessment of laboratories performing heat transfer property measurements of building products and components according to standardized test methods. It is relevant both to assessments conducted internally and to those carried out formally by an accreditation body, and is intended to be of assistance to all interested parties. It gives contents of the documentation required by EN 45001 (equipment manual, calibration and maintenance files, measurement procedure document) and the procedures for the assessment of equipment accuracy and performance check. All other requirements regarding laboratories undertaking heat transfer property measurements are given in the EN 45000 series. This part 1 of this standard gives assessment requirements common to various test methods; the subsequent parts give assessment requirements, which are relevant to each test method The application of this standard assumes an adequate level of competence for the personnel involved.
