QUALITY ASSURANCE PROVISIONS
Qualification Testing
A.
Specim en Selection
Specim ens shall be prepared in accordance with applicable Instruction Sheets and shall be
selected at random from current production. Each test group shall consist of 4 specim ens. Four
inch lengths of 26 AW G MIL-W -16867 Type E wire shall be term inated to each connector post in
such a m anner to facilitate the test requirem ents for each specim en.
B.
Test Sequence
Qualification inspection shall be verified by testing specim ens as specified in Figure 2.
4.2.
Requalification Testing
If changes significantly affecting form , fit or function are m ade to the product or m anufacturing process,
product assurance shall coordinate requalification testing, consisting of all or part of the original testing
sequence as determ ined by developm ent/product, quality and reliability engineering.
4.3.
Acceptance
Acceptance is based on verification that the product m eets the requirem ents of Figure 1. Failures
attributed to equipm ent, test setup or operator deficiencies shall not disqualify the product. If product
failure occurs, corrective action shall be taken and specim ens resubm itted for qualification. Testing to
confirm corrective action is required before resubm ittal.
4.4.
Quality Conform ance Inspection
MIL-STD-105 shall specify the sam pling acceptable quality level to be used. Dim ensional and functional
requirem ents shall be in accordance with the applicable product drawing and this specification.
