Scope
This standard specifies requirements for the manufacturing and control electrical harnesses.
This standard does not apply to Coaxial Cables Assemblies and Optical links. Requirements for Coaxial Cables Assemblies can be found in ECSS-Q-ST-70-18 ‘Preparation, assembly and mounting of RF coaxial cables’.
This standard does not cover requirements for soldering. Requirements for soldering can be found in ECSS-Q-ST-70-61 ‘Space product assurance – High reliability assembly for surface mount and through hole connections’.
This standard does not specify requirements for crimping. Requirements for crimping can be found in ECSS-Q-ST-70-26 ‘Space product assurance – Crimping of high-reliability electrical connections’.
This standard needs to be tailored to the specific characteristic and constrains of the space project on which it is applied in conformance with ECSS-S-ST-00-02.
For specialized harness technologies (such as RF, high data rate and optical data bus interfaces), for which dedicated ECSS standards and ESCC specifications exist, those documents supersede requirements specified in this ECSS standard in case of clashes.
NOTE 1 For radio frequency and microwave cable assemblies see generic specification ESCC 3408 and subordinate detailed specifications.
NOTE 2 For high data cable assemblies see generic specification ESCC 3409 and subordinate detailed specifications.
NOTE 3 For optical cable assemblies see generic specification ESCC 3420 and subordinate detailed specifications.
