Proposal from the Informal Working Group on Measurement Uncertainties (IWG MU) to amend UN R51 with tables showing the measurement uncertainties when performing type-approval, COP, or field testing (e.g. market surveillance).
The measurement uncertainties developed in this Appendix are based the IWG MU work and its Document for Reference which describes a general approach to estimate measurement uncertainties (GRBP/2022/9/Rev.2). The impact of the quantities on the expanded uncertainty has been evaluated separately for run-to-run, day-to-day, vehicle-to-vehicle and site-to-site variations. Some of the different impacts are based on calculations from tolerances in Annex 3, while others are based on experiences.
6. The Chair of IWG MU reported on their activities (GRBP-77-10-Rev.1) and presented amendments to the document of reference on measurement uncertainties (GRBP-77-07 and GRBP-77-08). GRBP adopted the amendments and requested the secretariat to publish the revised document of reference on the GRBP website.
7. The expert from IWG MU introduced a proposal that aimed to amend UN Regulation No. 51 with tables showing the measurement uncertainties when performing type approval, conformity of production (COP) or field testing (e.g. market surveillance) (GRBP-77-09). Some GRBP experts suggested that these tables be included not in the UN Regulation, but in another document, for example, the above document of reference. Following an exchange of views, GRBP decided to revert to this issue at the next session.
4. The expert of IWG MU presented a revised document of reference on measurement uncertainties (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRBP/2022/9/Rev.1). GRBP adopted the revised document, as amended by GRBP-76-11, and requested the secretariat to publish it on the GRBP website for reference documents.
5. GRBP took note that, at the June 2022 session of WP.29, IWG MU had delivered a presentation on the general approach of how to handle measurement uncertainties in UN Regulations.
