Which component is NOT part of the IVV testing process?

In the context of IVV (Inspection, Verification, and Validation) testing processes, calibration settings are not typically considered a direct component involved in the testing itself. IVV testing focuses on ensuring that a system meets its requirements and specifications through various stages of testing.

While calibration is crucial for ensuring accuracy in measurements and instrument functionality, it is usually a preparatory step that takes place before testing begins rather than being seen as an integral part of the testing process. Calibration settings ensure that instruments are prepared and adjusted properly, but during the actual IVV testing phases, the emphasis is placed on evaluating the system performance, utilizing tools such as electrical mats and test meters, and often connecting to a live source to conduct tests in realistic conditions.

This distinction highlights the role of calibration settings as necessary for accurate testing, but not as active components of the IVV testing process itself.
