Category II is where a reading becomes defensible, so the two methods that make it defensible are worked with numbers rather than described: determining emissivity on the actual surface, and building an error budget term by term for both a hot high-emissivity target and a cool reflective one.

No severity table is reproduced. The book explains how a criterion is structured and why a programme must adopt one and cite it.
