That's perfectly fine and will be accepted i generally only get calibration done every 3 years unless quarterly test results are suspect.

Yep . as Sintra says....Checkbox with results sheets is fine.

same here.

when I got the kit I got it callibtrated, and then selfcheck with my kewtech fc100 quarterly.


On my last asessment I just placed a custom made self check table with a few readings on it under his nose and the guy didn't really pay much more attention to it.

As I understand it, if you check the meters and keep results quarterly then you only need to get the meters calibrated every third year. My question is; do you need to calibrate the check box every year or does that get the three year allowance as well?
