Question

Energy Consumption. Exercises 1-5 refer to the amounts of energy consumed in the author’s home. (Most of the data are real, but some are fabricated.) Each value represents energy consumed (kWh) in a two-month period. Let each subgroup consist of the six amounts within the same year. Data are available for download at www.TriolaStats.com

Let each subgroup consist of the 6 values within a year. Construct an R chart and determine whether the process variation is within statistical control. If it is not, identify which of the three out-of-control criteria lead to rejection of statistically stable variation.

Expert Solution
Step 1

Note: In this scenario, XLSTAT software is used to obtain R-chart.

Requirements for the out-of-control state:

A process is said to be out-of-statistical control if any one of the following requirements are satisfied:

  • There exists an upward or downward trend or a cyclic pattern.
  • The sample point lies below the lower control limit or above the upper control limit.
  • There exist at least 8 consecutive sample points above or below the central line. It is known as the Run Rule of 8.
Step 2

Step-by-step procedure to obtain the ‘Statistical process control’ using the XLSTAT software:

  • Choose Statistical Process Control (SPC) > Subgroup charts.
  • Select Chart type as R chart.
  • Choose General.
  • Mark Columns under Data format.
  • Select input range ‘A1:E9’ under Data.
  • Click OK.

Output using the XLSTAT software is given below:
