Hi Major, and welcome to CPF!:thumbsup:
Would you say that the likelihood that a meter needs recalibration is the same for less expensive meters vs. higher quality ones, or is the need simply proportionate to the accuracy of the meters? In other words, obviously a meter that is +/- 0.025% +1 is more likely to be out of spec than a meter that is +/- 1% +3, or is it?
I hope that makes sense. I'm in a bit of a "crunch" today.

......Sometimes the meters will fall within the specs and sometimes they wont. From my normal customers I would say for the most part atleast one area in the performance test has to be tweaked back into specs per year......
......One thing to consider if your thinking about just buying one cheap meter a year to replace a more expensive option is that how do you know the cheap meter works from the start? It may not be off but yearly or even every two years between calibrations gives you the piece of mind it is right.
