EVALUATION OF COMMERCIAL TYPES OF TEST POINTS FOR AVIONIC EQUIPMENT

Abstract

Three commercially available test poin points evaluated were all of the pressfit type. It was found that the mounting holes must be drilled or punched exactly to the size and tolerance recommended by the manufacturer or the test point would not hold in its mounting plate. Also, the tools necessary for mounting the test points were not standardized and each manufacturer's product required its own specially dimensioned tool to properly mount the test point. The test points were evaluateds were selected for evaluation. The test points evaluated were all of the pressfit type. It was found that the mounting holes must be drilled or punched exactly to the size and tolerance recommended by the manufacturer or the test point would not hold in its mounting plate. Also, the tools necessary for mounting the test points were not standardized and each manufacturer's product required its own specially dimensioned tool to properly mount the test point. The test points were evaluated in accordance with the procedures of MIL-STD-202B, for the following tests: dielectric strength; insulation resistance; contact resistance; humidity; and vibration.
