Tables
1 Relationship between sample size and batch size for
    the three general inspection levels
2 Percentage of batches expected to be accepted if
    quality is equal to the AQL
3 Twenty-five batches from a hypothetical inspection
    process. AQL = 1.5 % defective
4 Fifteen batches from a hypothetical inspection
    process. AQL = 10 % defective
5 Ten batches from a hypothetical inspection process.
    AQL = 10 % defective
6 Twenty batches from a hypothetical inspection
    process. Inspection level III
7 Random sampling numbers
8 AQL normal tolerance factors
Figures
1 Operating characteristic curve of a single-sampling
    plan
2 The effect of a single-sampling plan
3 The ideal, but unattainable, O.C. curve
4 O.C. curve of a sampling plan designed to give a
    high probability of rejection if any batch having a
    quality worse than the AQL is submitted
5 O.C. curve of a sampling plan designed to give a
    high probability of acceptance if any batch having a
    quality better than the AQL is submitted
6 O.C. curves for two 'normal inspection' sampling
    plans for AQL 1.0 % defective
7 Four sampling plans for AQL 1.5 % defective, normal
    inspection, single sampling
8 Comparison of O.C. curves for single, double,
    multiple and sequential sampling for AQL 4 %
    defective, code letter H, normal inspection
9 Comparison of average sample sizes for single,
    double, multiple and sequential sampling for AQL 4 %
    defective, code letter H, normal inspection
10 Simultaneous change of AQL and tolerances when
    quality is equal to the AQL
11 Comparison of O.C. curves for determining inspection
    level. AQL 1 % defective, normal inspection
12 Nomogram for type of sampling, code letter and
    sample size in BS 6001
13 Nomogram for AQL, sample size and acceptance
    number in BS 6001

Guidance to specifiers and inspectors, illustrated by examples. Explains rules for switching from normal to tightened or reduced inspection. Based on Defence Guide DG-7-A.
