Abstract: Uncertainty budgets are receiving increasing attention not only from accredited laboratories, but from the metrology community at large. Often uncertainties are given with three or more significant digits, indicating that the uncertainty has been determined to within one percent or better, but how accurately can uncertainty be estimated? The paper explores the capabilities of common statistical techniques as well as some of the tools given in the Guide to the Expression of Uncertainty in Measurement. As it turns out, these fundamental building blocks impose some very significant limitations on the uncertainty.
