1   Scope

  [ISO 18283](/search?q=ISO%C2%A018283)
   defines the basic terms used in  manual sampling  of hard coal and coke and describes the general principles of sampling. It specifies
  procedures and requirements for establishing a  manual sampling  scheme, methods of  manual sampling , sampling equipment, handling and storage of  samples ,  sample  preparation and a sampling report. 
This International Standard applies to  manual sampling  from  fuels  in movement. Guidelines for  manual sampling  from  fuels  in stationary situations are given in Annex B, but this method of sampling does not provide a representative  test sample  and the sampling report shall state this.
