Abstract
An interlaboratory comparison of Josephson Voltage Standards (JVS) has been made among 16 national, industrial, and military standards laboratories in North America and one in Europe. The comparison was made at 10 V using a s et of four traveling Zener reference standards. A pivot laboratory made mea surements at the beginning, at the end, and at nine other times during the comparison. The measured differences and their uncertainties are reported a nd used to establish a table of equivalence between each participant and th e pivot, and between each participant and the National Institute of Standar ds and Technology (NIST). All but two of the differences fall within two pa rts in 10(8).
