The present guideline is generally applicable for torque measurement devices, the torque of which is defined by measuring of the elastic form change of a deformation body or a measured variable which is in proportion to the torque. This guideline is applicable for the progressive (static) and continuous (quasi-static) calibration of torque measurement devices. Among other things, torque measurement devices for the static calibration of test equipment and torque measurement devices for general applications (e.g. as torque sensors in power screwdrivers or torque transducers in test benches) are the subject. Procedures for the calibration (so-called work calibrations) and for the definition of the measuring uncertainty are given.
