Dimensions and Permissible Variations10.1 Units of Measure:10.1.1 SelectionThis specification requires that the purchaser selects the units (SI or inch-pound) to be used for productcertification. In the absence of a stated selection of units on the purchase order, this selection

43、may be expressed by the purchaserin several alternate forms listed in order of precedence.10.1.1.1 If the purchaser and supplier have a history of using specific units, these units shall continue to be certified untilexpressly changed by the purchaser.10.1.1.2 In the absence of historic precedence,

44、if the units used to define the product on the purchasers purchase order (PO),specification, and engineering drawing are consistent, these units shall be used by the supplier for product certification.10.1.1.3 If the purchasers selection of units is unclear, the units of measure shall be agreed upon

45、 between the purchaser andsupplier.10.1.2 Conversion of UnitsIf the suppliers test equipment does not report in the selected units, the test equipment units maybe converted to the selected units for certification purposes. Accurate arithmetic conversion and proper use of significant digitsshould be

46、observed when performing this conversion. IEEE/ASTM SI 10 provides guidelines for the use of SI units.
