* ''Manga/VermeilInGold'': During the Bronze Exam, mages from across the country are told to pour their mana into a giant crystal ball in order to measure their magic. What the applicants don't know is that [[HiddenPurposeTest the real test is being able to read and decypher the magic formulae inscribed into the crystal in order to find the spot where the mana flows the easiest]]. Alto is the only one who catches on to this, and initally moves to the back of the stage, as that is the spot where he can pour the most mana into the crystal; however, at Vermeil's prompting, he decides to show off a little and moves to the right side of the stage, where the mana flow would be the weakest, before pouring enough mana to shatter the crystal ball into a million pieces. As if the scale wasn't broken enough already, while the rest of the mages who were able to pour their mana created normal red flames, Alto was somehow able to create ''silver'' flames, something which utterly astonishes the proctors.

** In the Deicide Arc, after Aizen enters his Chrysalis stage, his power becomes so great that it's essentially imperceptible to all Shinigami -- except for Ichigo, who is still capable of reaching Aizen's level of power thanks to his status as a natural hybrid. Later in the arc, after Ichigo completes his training in the Dangai, it's turned the other way around, with Aizen being the one completely unable to sense Ichigo's reiatsu. [[CurbStompBattle It takes having his body and ego driven to the ground by Ichigo's power to understand why]].
** The final arc opens with panic in the 12th Division as the Shutara Scale measurements break down. The Scale is supposed to measure the Balance of Souls between all the worlds, but a sudden upsurge in Hollow soul destruction sends the Scale off the charts. The Shinigami comment that the Scale simply isn't designed to handle so much destruction in such a short period of time, announcing the resurgence of the allegedly almost-extinct Quincies.
** The Quincy invasion of Soul Society manifests as multiple powerful pillars of light. The 12th Division struggles to analyse them because the amount of raw power makes it hard to calibrate the instruments. They briefly get a clear reading to confirm the enemy is definitely Quincy before the attackers step out of the pillars and nearly half of the Gotei 13 is decimated within just a few short minutes. The measurements break down completely.
* In ''Anime/CControl'', there are three levels of attack an Asset can use: Microflation is the weakest, Mezzoflation is medium and Macroflation is the highest. For attacks of Mezzo level and above, a digitized announcer [[CallingYourAttacks calls out the name and level]] of those attacks when used.

When Kusuo is tested on a device that reads a person's grip strength, he squeezes too hard due to his [[PowerIncontinence poor control]] of his SuperStrength and it shows an extremely high rating. He hides this by squeezing even harder so the meter loops all the way around past the maximum and zero, so it looks like he got a low result.

The magic-measuring device stopped at 9999 because that was as far as it went... [[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill and because she completely vaporized the thing in the process]].
* In ''Anime/GuiltyCrown'' the protagonists find a Void-o-meter, to detect the level of power someone has both when they use their own Void and when someone else uses theirs. Most people rank around one hundred, with three hundred being on the higher end. For Inori, it slowly spirals up to two thousand before giving up and just declaring "OVER."
* In ''I Went to School to be a Swordswoman, But My Magical Aptitude is 9999'' the nine-year old heroine Rola is assessed when she joins a prestigious Academy for adventurers by touching a magic crystal. While she shows strong initial ratings on her physical stats, her ratings for the six different magic types are each 9,999. For comparison, the great sage who founded the school, a heroine from 130 years ago, had ratings in the 3,000 to 6,000 range. It is even said the crystal simply maxes out at 9,999 and her true abilities could be even higher.
* Most Stands in ''Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventure'' are [[RandomPowerRanking rated from A to E]] on various parameters, but a couple break the scale entirely, having either "infinite" or "null" written in their entries. Sometimes it's self-explanatory (Notorious B.I.G. has CompleteImmortality and isn't connected to its user, so it gets infinite Range and Persistence), and other times it's just because trying to put the Stand on any kind of scale is impossible (how do you grade the destructive power of cursing a person to experience death for eternity?), which is especially common with RealityWarper-type Stands.
* In an episode of ''Anime/{{MM}}'', new character Noa is trying to harness "pervert energy", which is ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin, energy related to the level of a person's perversion. She measures this energy from Taro while he's being tortured and is utterly astonished. Taro's later told that his insanely massive pervert power is what allowed Noa to proceed with her evil plan. What follows gradually turns into yet another ''Anime/DragonBallZ'' parody.
* Early on in ''Manga/MyHeroAcademia'', the members of Class 1-A are given several tests to assess their physical abilities and Quirks, including one where they have to throw a ball as far as possible. Uraraka uses her [[Gravitymaster anti-gravity Quirk]] on the ball and it just floats away, never to return, so her score is recorded as "Infinity".

Naruto goes into Sage mode, allowing him to sense the Ten Tails's Chakra, and is almost blown back by it, and we're given a visual of how much it has: [[spoiler:It's depicted as a ''Planet'']]. This is later taken further as the Ten Tails turns into its second form and, back at the Shinobi Alliance headquarters, an entire second sphere of chakra is created as a result of the mutation, symbolized as a planet appearing, and making it, in just its second form, have enough chakra to rival every living thing on the planet. And it just gets stronger from there.

* The ''Apollo 13'' incident began on the ground, when one of the oxygen tanks that would later go into space with the service module was having a mechanical problem due to the tanks getting dropped during a move between spacecraft. The liquid oxygen drain was jarred and unusable. The technicians decided to vent the liquid oxygen from the tank with the help of the onboard heating system. This caused the temperature gauge (which was designed for use in space after all) to go off-scale high. However, nobody knew at the time just how far off the scale things were. The results are well-known. Specifically, looking at the Website/{{Wikipedia}} article, the temp gauge didn't go above 100° Fahrenheit (38° Celsius). This wasn't considered a problem, because a thermostat was supposed to cut the heat at 80° F. Unfortunately, this had fused on because when the electrical system was redesigned from 28v to 65v, the thermostat wasn't. The result was that temperatures hit an estimated '''1000° F''' (538° C) and burned the insulation off the wires. Which led to an exposed, sparking wire ''inside'' a tank of pressurized oxygen. Which then exploded.

* Played with in ''Literature/ImInLoveWithTheVillainess''. A person's magical aptitude is measured as one of five categories, and their current skill level is graded out of 100. Rei's skill level, to everyone's shock ([[NextLifeAsAFictionalCharacter except her own]]), is recorded as "unmeasurable". As Rod correctly surmises, this isn't because her aptitude is off the scale (which would've broken the measuring equipment), but because she's a "dual caster" who can wield multiple elements at once - the charts weren't designed to handle such an eventuality because it's so exceptionally rare.

This is called being “out of linearity”, and when it happens the technician usually has to dilute the specimen and run the test again. Since all biochemical values are given as a range, outside of which is unhealthy, it is possible for the values to be off the scale by being too low as well as by too high.

* In ''VideoGame/HalfLife2: Episode 1'', the Combine are purposely trying to destabilise their Citadel's Dark Energy Core to cause a massive explosion (sacrificing the whole base of operations, and the surrounding city), then use the release of energy to send a message off-world and open up a super-portal from which off-world reinforcements can pour in. When Alyx Vance looks at the Control Room monitor, she claims that the Core Reactor's readings are off the charts.

** Geiger counters. Because of how a GM tube works (a low pressure gas inside is ionized, which causes a cascade effect that creates a voltage difference, causing an electrical dicharge which is registered as a "count", which then has to be quenched by an onboard power source before a new count can be registered), exposing a Geiger counter to a very high radiation field will effectively saturate it. With older counters, this would cause them to show a false reading that was MUCH lower than the amount of radiation that was actually present. This happened at Chernobyl, causing some people to think there was far less danger than there actually was. Newer meters that are computer controlled can detect this state and will usually display "overload" on the display. This doesn't damage the device in any way (removing it from the high radiation field will restore normal functionality), but a Geiger counter in the overload state cannot be trusted to give reliable readings. Geiger counters are therefore effectively useless in high radiation fields.

She measures this energy from Taro while he's being tortured and is utterly astonished. Taro's later told that his insanely massive pervert power is what allowed Noa to proceed with her evil plan. What follows gradually turns into year another ''Anime/DragonBallZ'' parody.
