Weights & Measures Inspectors require the accuracy of all the commercial weighing and measuring equipment used for serving consumers and businesses be Legal for Trade. Some have a requirement saying a scale is suitable for its intended use if the minimum load which will be weighed on it is 50 measurement divisions or more. A scale whose smallest division is 0.01 gram is suitable for minimum loads of 0.5 grams. The Mettler Toledo JL502 fits the requirement since the scale increments in 0.01 gram graduations.
