This document gives specific and measurable design criteria to be applied at a design review prior to tooling. The specification is formatted as a checklist to aid in its use. The requirements do not apply in all situations so engineering judgment must be used. This is a specification for design criteria; applicable performance specifications (USCAR-2, etc.) must still be performed.
Items in this document are grouped by component as follows:
A
Terminals
B
Secondary Terminal Locks
C
Connectors
D
Connector Locks
E
Secondary Connector Locks (Connector Position Assurance, CPA)
