Standards Development

Scope

This document specifies:

— the tests for finished wiring, including connectors and, if necessary, terminals, terminal ends, junction boxes, circuit breakers, etc.;

— the requirements for verification of aircraft electrical wiring;

— continuity of circuits;

— dielectric strength;

— insulation resistance;

— partial discharge for operating voltages above 230/400 V a.c. (see also TR 4907[1]).

These tests do not concern equipment installed in the aircraft (see operation of systems) and do not apply to the wiring used in instrumentation.
