Abstract: Until today. fiber-opt,ic power meters rarely meet their specified accuracies in real-life measurement situations. The reason is that manufacturers and calibration laboratories usually do not take all of the influencing mechanisms into account. This paper reports on an effol-t of the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) to standardize the calibration and the specification of optical power meters. The aim is to make optical power meters comparable. by proposing standardized measurements of all important uncert.ainties. including the fiber- and connector-related effects and those related t.o the tracing t.o a national laboratory. The paper also presents an example of an uncertainty measurement of Hewlett Packards optical power meter, following the new guidelines.
