Science - Chemistry; Chem Sci/Eng / fire test
English term or phrase: uncertainty measurement
This is the only context I have:
Uncertainty measurement in XXX's fire testing is less than 1% as per XXXX-1234 regulation.

What is the correct Hebrew term for this?
I think it is more commonly known as: measurement uncertainty.

neutral  Daniel Rabinovich: המונח נכון אבל מקור האי-ודאות אינו קוונטי בדרך-כלל. כפי שכתבת, כל מדידה כרוכה באי-דאות מסוימת גם ברמה הקלאסית.
