This contains the units, supplementary units, and multiplier prefixes of the International System, along with instructions for their correct use. Numerous examples are given. Conversions between the International and the British-American System are also discussed, and a procedure is described for rounding after such conversions. Three appendixes define the International System base units, list conversion factors, and explain the work of the International Bureau of Weights and Measures. 410 0$aIEEE Std ;$v268-1973. 517 $aIEEE Std 268-1973 606 $aUnits of measurement 606 $aMeasurement$xStandards 615 0$aUnits of measurement. 615 0$aMeasurement$xStandards. 676 $a530.8 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aDOCUMENT 912 $a996280694503316 996 $aIEEE Std 268-1973 (Revision of IEEE Std 268-1966)$93645991 997 $aUNISA
