The sampling plans<br \/>\nhave been devised so that their operating characteristic curves match those of the corresponding attributes<br \/>\nplans in ISO 2859-4 as closely as possible, so that the choice between using sampling by attributes and<br \/>\nsampling by variables is not influenced by attempts to increase the chance of accepting an incorrectly<br \/>\ndeclared quality level. In this part of ISO 3951, there is a risk of between 1,4 % and 8,2 % of contradicting a<br \/>\ncorrect declared quality level. The risk is 10 % of failing to contradict an incorrect declared quality level which<br \/>\nis related to the limiting quality ratio (see Clause 4). Sampling plans are provided corresponding to three levels<br \/>\nof discriminatory ability, and for the cases of unknown and known process standard deviation.<br \/>\nIn contrast to the procedures in the other parts of ISO 3951, the procedures in this part of ISO 3951 are not<br \/>\napplicable to acceptance assessment of lots. Generally, the balancing of the risks of reaching incorrect<br \/>\nconclusions in assessment procedures will differ from the balancing in the procedures for acceptance<br \/>\nsampling.<br \/>\nThis part of ISO 3951 may be used for various forms of quality inspection in situations where objective<br \/>\nevidence of conformity to some declared quality level is to be provided by means of inspection of a sample.<br \/>\nThe procedures are applicable to entities such as lots, process output, etc. that allow random samples of<br \/>\nindividual items to be taken from the entity.<br \/>\nThe sampling plans provided in this part of ISO 3951 are applicable, but not limited, to inspection of a variety<br \/>\nof products such as<br \/>\n? end items,<br \/>\n? components and raw materials,<br \/>\n? operations,<br \/>\n? materials in process,<br \/>\n? supplies in storage,<br \/>\n? maintenance operations,<br \/>\n? data or records, and<br \/>\n? administrative procedures.<br \/>\nThe procedures are intended to be used when the quality characteristics are measurable variables that are<br \/>\nindependent and normally distributed, and where the quantity of interest is the fraction of items that are<br \/>\nnonconforming.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_kad_blocks_custom_css":"","_kad_blocks_head_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_body_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_footer_custom_js":"","_kad_post_transparent":"","_kad_post_title":"","_kad_post_layout":"","_kad_post_sidebar_id":"","_kad_post_content_style":"","_kad_post_vertical_padding":"","_kad_post_feature":"","_kad_post_feature_position":"","_kad_post_header":false,"_kad_post_footer":false,"_kad_post_classname":""},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[175],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-166924","product","type-product","status-publish","product_cat-tse","first","instock","purchasable","product-type-simple","entry","content-bg","loop-entry"],"taxonomy_info":{"product_cat":[{"value":175,"label":"TSE"}]},"featured_image_src_large":false,"author_info":[],"comment_info":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/onlinestandart.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/166924","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/onlinestandart.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/onlinestandart.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/onlinestandart.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=166924"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/onlinestandart.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=166924"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/onlinestandart.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=166924"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/onlinestandart.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=166924"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
