Abstract

<strong>Purpose</strong> <br>These requirements set forth the general design and testing requirements for electrical wiring harnesses (see 6.1) and cable assemblies (see 6.2.4) that are to be installed in space vehicles. <br><strong>Application</strong> <br>The wiring requirements covered by this document are applicable to wiring harnesses and accessories for the use in the interconnection of electrical and electronic equipment in space vehicles. These requirements may also be used to specify requirements for interconnect wiring on launch vehicles, intercontinental ballistic missiles, or other vehicles (see 6.1). For those applications the term "space vehicle" is to be interpreted as the applicable vehicle. This document may be tailored by the acquisition activity for the specific application or program prior to contract award. <br><strong>Compliance with System Requirements</strong> <br>These requirements shall not relieve the contractor and subcontractors of the responsibility for complying with all the equipment, system performance, and reliability requirements as set forth in the applicable specifications and contract.
