The four-point system derives its name from the basic grading rule that amaximum of four penalty points can be assessed for any single defect and thatno linear meter can be assigned more than four points regardless of the number of defects within that piece. 
PENALTY POINT EVALUATION:
 Defects in both warp / fill directions will be assigned points under thefollowing criteria. 
 Defect RangePoints Evaluation
 Up to 3 inches1 Point> 3 inches < 6 inches2 Points> 6 inches < 9 inches3 Points> 9 inches 4 Points 
WHAT IS A DEFECT?
 The length of the defect is used to determine the penalty points. Only major defects are considered. A major defect is any defect, if found on a finished product, would classify the product as a B-grade. Any defect of a continuous nature shall be assigned four points for each meter in which it occurs.Severe defects are assigned the maximum four points for each meter in whichthey occur.Example: Regardless of size, a hole would be penalized four points. Continuing conditions such as bare, side center side shading, roll to rollshading, narrow or irregular width, creasing, uneven finish shall be countedfour points for every meter within the shipment that is found to contain theseconditions, provided that the article that is to be made from this fabric isclassified B-grade due to this fault. The maximum penalty for any one-meter shall not be more than four points. A minor defect is any defect that does not classify the product as B-grade because of either severity or location. When inspecting fabric before cutting, itis necessary to rate questionable defects as major, since the inspector will notknow where the defect may occur on the item. 
Running Defects:
Any major defect found to repeat and / or run in a continuous manner willconstitute a running defect. All major running defects must be assigned four 
 
 penalty points to every meter in the roll where it occurs. 
Full Width Defects:
A full width major defect would cause that meter of fabric to be assigned four  penalty points.
Fabric Width:
 Fabric width will be checked minimum of three times during the inspection of a roll (beginning, middle and end of the roll).Rolls having width less than the specified are potential problems. In such caseswidth deviation of more than 1% would constitute a major fault.Overall, fabric width is measured from out side of the selvage to the outside of the opposite selvage.
Roll Length:
Rolls having meters less than that stated on the packing are a problem. Anyroll having more than 1% lesser fabric than that specified is rejected.The entire shipment shall be rejected if the total measured meters in the sampleaudit are more than 1% short that what is declared on the packing.
Splices:
Rolls can be composed of several spliced parts. No roll shall be accepted thatcontains a splice less than twenty five ( 25 ) meters in length unless otherwiseexpressly accepted. Ensure that the 95% of the shipment contains 100 meter  plus fabric length if the fabric is being used for made - ups.In case of piece goods, the fabric length and the number of splices / roll arestrictly followed as per the requirement of the customer.
Bow & Skew:
 No roll shall be accepted as first quality that exhibit bow or skew more than:
Fabric WidthMaximum Bow or SkewDesign Print/dyesDeviationUp to 45 inches 2.0%2.0%60 inches2.0%2.0%90 inches and above2.0%2.0%
§
The above is subject to change if buyer requires a tighter tolerance / nature of 
 
design / end use of the fabric.Tolerance for bowed condition not affecting the full width will befractionalized part of the maximums as stated above according to the areaaffected by the bow.Penalty points will not be assigned for fabrics found to have conditions of  bowing in excess of the above stated tolerances but shall be noted in theinspection report. And if any fabric exhibits bow or skew where its end use becomes doubtful, then that fabric will be rejected.
Fabric Odors:
 No roll shall be accepted that exhibits objectionable odors.
Holes:
All defects that break the fabric, regardless of size, shall be penalized amaximum of four points. A hole consists of two or more broken yarns.
Common Fabric Faults:
Although fabric faults are numerous but some of the common fabric faults arementioned below:
 Abrasion Mark:
A place in the fabric where the surface has been damaged dueto friction or abnormally weakened by any operation through which it has been passed.
 Bow:
When the filling yarns lye in an arc across the width of the fabric.
 Skew:
Distortion in the construction of the fabric i.e. in the yarn that constitutethe fabric.
Crease:
A fabric defect across the fabric width usually caused by a sharp fold.
Oil Stain:
Oil mark on the fabric.
 Dye Stain:
An area of discoloration due to un- even absorption of colorant.
 Hole:
A break in the fabric involving more than two yarns.
 Mispick:
A pick not properly interlaced.
 Double Pick:
Two yarns running simultaneously, mostly in the weft.
 Misprint:
In printed fabrics, either missed, or partially missed, or incorrectly positioned relative to each other.
 Slub:
An abruptly thickened place in a yarn.
 Screen Out:
The appearance of a colored separation line in a printed design.
Calendar Line:
Sharp pressmark on fabric due to the calendar during the
of 00
