This is a research article on how to estimate the solar energy capacity of roof surfaces in Andalusia. I seriously doubt that the translation is "admissible error". Here is the context:
El*** error admisible*** en la población de la muestra se fijó en el 10 %. Como la varianza verdadera de la población de cada estrato h es desconocida, se seleccionó una pequeña muestra poblacional de cada uno de los estratos, denominada muestra piloto.

--------------------------------------------------
The margin of error has an inverse relationship to the sample size. Since the sample size was small, the margin of error is relatively big.

In probability, we talk about a significant margin of error (at the 0.05 level) or a highly significant margin of error (at the 0.01 level).

en español el término técnico es tolerancia tanto en ingeniería como en estadística. Error admisible, es como más explícito y pienso que es por eso que se lo usa.
