Accuracy is the ability of an instrument to show the exact reading.
Always related to the extent of the wrong reading/non accuracy.
Normally shown in percentage of error which of the full scale reading percentage.
1. ACCURACY

2. PRECISION An equipment which is precise is not
necessarily accurate.
Defined as the capability of an instrument to show the same reading when used each time (reproducibility of the instrument).

3. TOLERANCE Closely related to accuracy of an
equipment where the accuracy of an equipment is sometimes referred to in the form of tolerance limit.
Defined as the maximum error expected in an instrument.

4. RANGE OF SPAN
Defined as the range of reading between minimum value and maximum value for the measurement of an instrument.

5. BIAS
Constant error which occurs during the measurement of an instrument.
This error is usually rectified through calibration.

6. LINEARITY Maximum deviation from linear relation
between input and output.
The output of an instrument has to be linearly proportionate to the measured quantity.
Normally shown in the form of full scale percentage (% fs).
The graph shows the output reading of an instrument when a few input readings are entered.

7. SENSIVITY Defined as the ratio of change in
output towards the change in input at a steady state condition.
Sensitivity (K) = Δθο
Δθi
Δθο : change in output; Δθi : change in input

9. RESOLUTION
The smallest change in input reading that can be traced accurately.
Given in the form ‘% of full scale (% fs)’.
Available in digital instrumentation.
