In other situations, they may not coincide, being either moreor less stringent. More stringent sampling (for example, smaller AQL
46、 values) is usually used for measurement of characteristics which are consideredcritical. The selection of sampling plans is independent of whether the term defect or nonconformity is appropriate.

(2011)defect, na departure of a quality characteristic from its intended level, or state, that occurs with a severity sufficient to cause anassociated product or service not to satisfy intended normal, or reasonably foreseeable, usage requirements. (2
49、011)DISCUSSIONThe terms “defect” and “nonconformity” and their derivatives are used somewhat interchangeably in the historical and current literature.Nonconformity objectively describes the comparison of test results to specification requirements, while the term defect has a connotation of predictingthe failure of a product or service to perform its intended function in use. Since this latter connotation is often unintended, the term nonconformityis preferred in full consensus standards. The selection of any sample plan
