They shall be carried out on: - each type and diameter of nut;

30、 - 42 nuts selected from a single batch by simple random sampling. The test programme may possibly be reduced, or the qualification be granted without inspection or testing: any such decision shall be based on the results obtained on similar types and diameters of nuts provided that the design and m

31、anufacturing conditions are identical. Table 2 indicates the allocation of nut sample for the inspections and tests. 4.2 Acceptance 4.2.1 Purpose The purpose of acceptance inspections and tests is to check, as simply as possible, by a method representative of actual use conditions, with the uncertai

32、nty inherent to statistical sampling, that the nuts constituting the batch satisfy the requirements of this standard. 4.2.2 Conditions Acceptance inspections and tests (requirements, methods, numbers of nuts) are specified in table 1. They shall be carried out on each batch. Nuts from the batch to b

33、e tested shall be selected by simple random sampling. Each nut may be submitted to several inspections or tests. If a more stringent inspection is deemed necessary, all or part of the qualification inspections and tests may be performed during the acceptance inspection and testing. In this case, the

34、 number of nuts submitted to these inspections and tests is the same as that submitted for qualification inspection and tests. 4.2.3 Responsibility Acceptance inspections and tests shall be carried out by the manufacturer, or under his responsibility. 4.2.4 Inspection and test report A test report s
