FROM ERRORS TO UNCERTAINTIES IN BASIC COURSE IN ELECTRICAL MEASUREMENTS
Abstract
Expressing accuracy of measurement by means of uncertainties becomes step by step common practice both in research and industry. It is therefore highly desirable that university graduates in electrical engineering know how to use uncertainties. That is why we started teaching practical use of uncertainties in basic measurement methods in our basic course in Electrical Measurement and Instrumentation, an obligatory course for all students of Faculty of Electrical Engineering of the Czech Technical University in Prague in the 3<sup>rd</sup> semester. The used approach completed with some examples of both the demonstration of uncertainty theory implementation in the lectures and the practical application in laboratory exercises are presented in the paper.
