Wagon weighing
 3 The maximum permissible error for coupled or uncoupled wagon weighing is the greatest of the following values:
 (a) the value calculated according to table 14, rounded to the nearest scale interval d;
 (b) the value calculated according to table 14, rounded to the nearest scale interval for the weight of a single wagon equal to 35% of the maximum wagon weight (as inscribed on the descriptive markings);
 (c) 1 d.

Train weighing
 4 The maximum permissible error for train weighing is the greatest of the following values:
 (a) the value calculated according to table 14, rounded to the nearest scale interval d;
 (b) the value calculated according to table 14 for the weight of a single wagon equal to 35% of the maximum wagon weight (as inscribed on the descriptive markings) multiplied by the number of reference wagons in the train (not exceeding 10 wagons) and rounded to the nearest scale interval;
 (c) 1 d for each wagon in the train, but not exceeding 10 d.

 (b) the maximum permissible error for weighing is the value calculated according to table 14.

Maximum permissible errors—static weighing
 5 The maximum permissible errors on static weighing for increasing or decreasing loads must be the appropriate values set out in table 15.
