Which calibration is performed on only one instrument with the input and output disconnected?
Loop calibration
System calibration
Individual calibration
No need for calibration
A _________________ is a set of instruments that are grouped and calibrated together. The input and output of the whole group determines the pass or fail status of the calibration.
Individual calibration
Loop calibration
