The Spanish Association for Standardisation
and Certification (AENOR) has, among other obligations, that of
establishing what characteristics measurement devices should possess
and how they should be handled. There are a great variety of UNE standards: almost everything has been provided for, from what the speedometer that measures the velocity of a vehicle has to be like, to what the slides in swimming pools have to be like so that they are not dangerous. The UNE standards
related to Physics indicate how, and with
what, to measure different magnitudes.
They are protected by the rules for intellectual property, so that in
order to see them the corresponding charge must be paid. There is an
AENOR publication which details the current norms in force: here. Carry out other searches which interest you. The terms "pendulum" and "cd" could be good examples. |
