It includes listings of the base units, supplementary units, and units derived therefrom. Guidance is provided on application of the SI prefixes, other units in use with SI (including units accepted for limited use and units to be abandoned), and unit selection. A section on style and usage covers the writing of unit symbols and names, pronunciation, and recommendations for numbers. Extensive guidance is provided on conversion and rounding including tables for conversion of linear dimensions, also pressure and stress, along with a very extensive table of conversion factors. An appendix provides background information in the development of SI.IEEE Std ;268-1976.IEEE Std 268-1976 Metric systemWeights and measuresStandardsMetric system.Weights and measuresStandards.389NjHacINjHaclDOCUMENT996280693903316IEEE Std 268-1976 (Supersedes ASTM E380-1974 IEEE Std 268-1973 IEEE Std 322-1971)3646704UNISA
