Abstract: Sampling plans in which items that are put to test, to collect the life of the items in order to decide upon accepting or rejecting a submitted lots are called reliability test plans. In this paper, a reliability test plan is used for acceptance or rejection of a lot of products submitted for inspection in which the lifetime of the items follow New Weibull-Pareto Distribution. Here the proposed sampling plan can save the test time in practical situations. Minimum sample size required to accept or reject a submitted lot for a given acceptance number with producer’s risk is found. The test plan to determine the termination time of the experiment for a given sample size, producer’s risk and termination number is also constructed. The comparison of the reliability test plan over similar plans is established with respect to time of the experiment. Results are illustrated by an example.
