There is no clear cut rules for this as all work will probably contain some words from other sources.  As a guide a returned percentage of below 15% would probably indicate that plagiarism has not occurred.  However, if the matching text is one continuous block this could still be considered plagiarism.  A high percentage would probably be anything over 25% (Yellow, orange, or red).  Again this will depend on the students work and the requirements of the report or essay.
