A standard is a unified and uniform system of measurement. Standards are important throughout the commercial, scientific, and technological worlds so that everyone concerned can be certain that they are using the same measurements. A few examples:

  • Electric meters on houses need to meet standards to ensure that they are accurately measuring your energy use.
  • Gas pumps are required to meet standards ensuring that they are pumping the correct volume of gas, that the grade of gas is as advertised, and that the the amount of leakage falls below a certain level for protection of the environment
  • Scientists standardize their measurements so that other scientists know exactly what went into each experiment
  • manufacturers build equipment to meet certain standards, both to protect the consumer (ensuring that the risk of using their product is minimal) and to provide compatibility (parts built to given standards are often interchangeable and interconnectable)
