Fig. 2 Plot of MV (a) and MeV (b) output results in order of completion. The standard deviation of the previous 20 audits (after removing three known erroneous MeV results) is shown by the dashed line. Bars indicate the standard uncertainty as given in the NPL report of the audit produced for the department.
