We investigate the approximation to the number of primes in arithmetic progressions given by Vaughan [7]. Instead of averaging the expected error term over all residue classes to modules in a given range, here we only consider subsets of arithmetic progressions that satisfy additional congruence conditions and provide asymptotic approximations.
