Remarks PT SOUTH QUALITY SAS (Buenos Aires, Argentina) operates this interlaboratory comparison scheme in accordance with ISO/IEC 17043. Statistical evaluation of results follows ISO 13528. The scheme is intended for laboratories that determine combustion gas acidity/conductivity and smoke density of electric cables according to IEC 60754-2 and IEC 61034-2, including laboratories working under ISO/IEC 17025. Since its first operation in 2011 the scheme has been organised every year, without interruption. In that time more than 40 laboratories from 26 countries have taken part, making each ILC exercise part of a long-standing series of comparable international results.
