Guide for the Design of Threaded Screw or Stud Type Electrical Equipment Terminations
AIR38C
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.
Rationale:
The revision of this document enabled updates of reference standards, and updates Table 2 notes section, providing clarification of stud and terminal lug applications. The revision also added special termination handling restrictions in alignment with AS50881 and removed the requirement for chromate treatment of parts due to hazardous material restrictions.
