Aging Mechanisms of Electrical Insulation Materials in a High Energy System

2024-02-16
CURRENT
AIR7374
The objective of this report is to serve as an introductory (educational) document to cover the potential failure mechanisms related to EIS in high voltage electrical component or HV electrical equipment in aircraft power systems. It has the following contents: (1) an overview of the current understandings of potential failure mechanisms related to EIS for high voltage and high-power application in aircraft; (2) main aging stressors and aging processes of EIS in electrical components used in the aircraft power systems and their common failure modes, and (3) the key indicators to assess the status of electrical insulation degradation and related testing needs. This document aims to assist HV power system designers in understanding the key considerations for EIS design and testing of HV components in aircraft, as well as the requirements for predicting their designed service life.

Insulation Sleeving, Electrical, Heat Shrinkable, General Specification for

2023-11-15
CURRENT
AS23053C
This specification establishes the requirements for various types and colors of electrical insulating sleeving that will shrink to a predetermined size upon the application of heat. This specification includes provisions for demonstrating compliance with qualification requirements (see Section 4 and 7.3), in process inspection, and statistical process control inspections (see 4.4). The continuous operating temperature ranges for the sleeving classes covered by this specification are from -112 to +482 °F (-80 to +250 °C). The continuous operating temperature range for each sleeving class is given in the applicable detail specification.

CURRENT
ARP1172A
This specification covers the general requirements for conventional AC and/or DC current carrying filter networks for the reduction of electromagnetic interference. A conventional filter is defined herein as a component containing definitive, lumped, R-L-C components and not employing distributed parameters as a required characteristic.

Guide for the Design of Threaded Screw or Stud Type Electrical Equipment Terminations

2023-06-05
CURRENT
AIR38D
To establish design recommendations that will provide a basis for safe and reliable connections to threaded screw-type or stud-type electrical equipment terminations. These recommendations are directed primarily, but not solely, to the aerospace and ground support equipment industries. Since individual design criteria may alter the details as outlined, it is therefore important that this SAE Aerospace Information Report (AIR) not be considered mandatory but be used only as a design guidance.

Managing Higher Voltages in Aerospace Electrical Systems

2023-03-14
CURRENT
AIR6127
This SAE Aerospace Information Report (AIR) considers the issue of proper design guidance for high voltage electrical systems used in aerospace applications. This document is focused on electrical discharge mechanisms including partial discharge and does not address personnel safety. Key areas of concern when using high voltage in aerospace applications are power conversion devices, electrical machines, connectors and cabling/wiring. The interaction between components and subsystems will be discussed. The AIR is intended for application to high voltage systems used in aerospace vehicles operating to a maximum altitude of 30000 m (approximately 100000 feet), and maximum operating voltages of below 1500 VRMS (AC)/1500 V peak (DC). These upper voltage limits have been incorporated because this report focuses on extending the operating voltage of non-propulsive electrical systems beyond that of existing aerospace systems.
