ISO 3951-2:2006 Sampling procedures for inspection by variables - Part 2: General specification for single sampling plans indexed by acceptance quality limit (AQL) for lot-by-lot inspection of independent quality characteristics
This part of ISO 3951 specifies an acceptance sampling system of single sampling plans for inspection by
variables, indexed in terms of the Acceptance Quality Limit (AQL).
This part of ISO 3951 is primarily designed for use under the following conditions:
a) where the inspection procedure is to be applied to a continuing series of lots of discrete products all
supplied by one producer using one production process. If there are different producers or production
processes, apply this part of ISO 3951 to each one separately;
b) where the quality characteristics of the items of product are measurable on a continuous scale;
c) where the measurement error is negligible (i.e. with a standard deviation no more than 10 % of the
corresponding process standard deviation);
d) where production is stable (under statistical control) and the quality characteristics are distributed, at least
to a close approximation, according to normal distributions;
e) where, in the case of multiple quality characteristics, the characteristics are independent of one another,
at least approximately;
f) where a contract or standard defines an upper specification limit U, a lower specification limit L, or both
on each of the quality characteristics.
