Definition
A measuring device or gauge used to check or verify the accuracy of another gauge.
Etymology
From counter- + gauge (Old Norse gaugrr, meaning 'measuring rod'). This quality-control term emerged in industrial manufacturing.
Kelly Says
Factories use countergauges to measure the measuring tools—if your ruler is slightly wrong, it won't measure correctly, so manufacturers keep reference versions locked away to check their regular tools.
