• If any <strong>of</strong> the measured dimensions (without tolerance) <strong>of</strong> the defect are smaller than<br />
the detection goal, this dimension shall be reported as “smaller than the detection<br />
target”.<br />
• Defect dimensions greater than the detection target shall always be reported as<br />
measured dimension and tolerans.<br />
• Deviations , whether <strong>in</strong> <strong>in</strong>spection purpose or <strong>in</strong> <strong>in</strong>spection scope, shall always be<br />
reported <strong>in</strong> a non-con<strong>for</strong>mance report (NCR).<br />

3.4 The accredited <strong>in</strong>spection agency (AK)<br />
The Accredited Inspection Agency (AK) has no active role <strong>in</strong> <strong>in</strong>spection <strong>qualification</strong>,<br />
but has tasks connected with the <strong>in</strong>spection carried out on site. The follow<strong>in</strong>g tasks<br />
with connection to <strong>in</strong>spection <strong>qualification</strong> are per<strong>for</strong>med by AK:<br />
• Review the Licensee’s defect descriptions and technical justifications regard<strong>in</strong>g<br />
relevant defects that can occur <strong>in</strong> components to be <strong>in</strong>spected.<br />
• Review defect- and and structural <strong>in</strong>tegrity analyses prepared by Licensee.<br />
• Review <strong>in</strong>spection <strong>in</strong>tervals specified by Licensee.<br />
• Assess ISI on site and certify con<strong>for</strong>mity with the requirements <strong>in</strong> the<br />
regulations. This implies that AK shall certify that the <strong>in</strong>spection on site is <strong>in</strong><br />
con<strong>for</strong>mity with the <strong>qualification</strong> and has been carried out by an accredited<br />
laboratory.<br />
• Review and assess any deviations <strong>in</strong> the <strong>in</strong>spection carried out with regard to<br />
scope, e.g. physical limitations.
