A Proposed Minimum Safety Criteria for Equipment Used to Test Bridgewire Continuity of Electro-Explosive Devices,
Abstract
To ensure a greater level of reliability and safety in the use of electro-explosive devices (EEDS), it is necessary to measure the continuity of the Devices Bridgewire. However, the electrical equipment used to measure these parameters is sometimes capable of causing premature detonation of the EED or sensitize the igniter resulting in a dud. This report describes minimum design criteria proposed for electrical equipment that can be used safely to test the electro-explosive devices. (Author)
