The conditions for the source functions of a multiplet to be equal are studied for plasmas with and without magnetic fields. It is found that source function equality holds - in addition to the case of collisional predominance - only when the redistribution functions are all identical and no interlocking with other lines occurs. When magnetic fields are present, the assumption of source function equality leads to a violation of the invariance conditions of the scattering matrix and should therefore not be made.
