A legal basis of the State metrology system is laid down by the Ukrainian law “About introduction of changes to the Low of Ukraine on metrology and metrological activities" which took effect on 1 of January 2005.

State metrological system consists of State metrology service and metrological services of state departments, manufacturers and organizations.

 

State metrological system includes:

-       Gospotrebstandart of the Ukraine and its divisions;

-       National scientific metrology center;

-       State science metrology centres;

-       Regional metrology bodies;

-       State service of time and reference frequencies;

-       State service of reference materials;

-       State service of reference data on physic constants and properties of substances and materials.

 

All the activities on assuring the uniformity of measurements and improvement of State metrology system are regulated by the authorised central executive organisation in the filed of metrology – State Committee of the Ukraine for technical regulation and consumer policy (Gospotrebstandart of Ukraine).
