Parameters that do not have non-SI units.

Parameter SI Unit
Current ampere (A)
Voltage volt (V)
Resistance ohm (Ω)
Capacitance farad (F)
Inductance henry (H)
Frequency hertz (Hz)
Energy joule (J)
Power watt (W)
Power Factor PF
Phase Angle °
Relative Humidity %RH
Mass flow rate kilogram per second (kg/s)
Volume flow rate cubic meter per second (m³/s)
Acceleration meter per second squared (m/s²)
Sound decibel (dB)
RPM Revolution per minute (rpm)
Time Second (s)
pH % Hydrogen (pH)
Conductivity siemens per meter (S/m)
Note: There is no conversion factor required to be mentioned in the certificate for
the metric prefixes (powers of 10).
Example: The SI unit of Mass is kilogram (kg); if you calibrate in milligram (mg) or
gram (g), then you don't need a conversion factor since these are metric prefixes
(powers of 10).
