AB - We quantify the routine performance and uncertainties of cosmogenic <sup>10</sup>Be, <sup>26</sup>Al and <sup>36</sup>Cl QA measurements made on the SUERC 5 MV accelerator mass spectrometer since 2004. Our analysis compiles data from primary (NIST SRM4325 for <sup>10</sup>Be, Purdue Z92-0222 for <sup>26</sup>Al and Purdue Z93-0005 for <sup>36</sup>Cl) and secondary (Nishiizumi's series for <sup>10</sup>Be, <sup>26</sup>Al and <sup>36</sup>Cl) reference samples with <sup>10</sup>Be/<sup>9</sup>Be, <sup>26</sup>Al/<sup>27</sup>Al and <sup>36</sup>Cl/Cl ratios ranging between 10<sup>-11</sup> and 10<sup>-13</sup>. Our decadal datasets indicate that the <sup>10</sup>Be, <sup>26</sup>Al and <sup>36</sup>Cl secondary standard samples have average standard deviations 1.1%-2.4%, 1.1%-2.8% and 3.0%-3.1%, respectively. The average statistical uncertainties based on counting statistics are 1.0%-1.8%, 0.9%-2.8% and 2.5%-2.7% for <sup>10</sup>Be, <sup>26</sup>Al and <sup>36</sup>Cl, respectively. These indicate additional uncertainties (0.6%-1.6% for <sup>10</sup>Be, 0.5%-2.4% for <sup>26</sup>Al and 1.4%-1.7% for <sup>36</sup>Cl) above those calculated from counting statistics alone. The average differences between the measured and the nominal values are within ±1% in 13 of 14 secondary samples.
