Abstract
Calibration is the operation establishing metrological traceability of values of calibrated measuring instrument scale (or reference material) to stated reference. In the case of indirect measurement it is necessary to know the relationship between determined quantity values and corresponding measurand values. If mathematic form of this relationship is unknown, it is substituted by its approximation. In this process a real situation is simplified by neglecting of influence quantities to a relation of two variables- independent versus dependent. Metrological traceability of certified reference materials (CRM) values intended for calibration purposes and characterised by means of a method working on the base of approximative function could be questionable. If a measurement method based on original relationship already exists, it should be strongly preferred in the process of CRM certification to methods based on approximation of original relationship.
